I don't know what it is, but the NICU has a very unique odor. It's not a bad odor, it's actually quite nice...a little bit sweet mixed with a dash of sanitary combine to make that distinct NICU smell that is different from the rest of the hospital. Maybe it's the soap we use when scrubbing in...
Not much new to report from from Luke today...he was up to 10cc's today and is tolerating his feedings very well. Wendy talked with our doctor today about the apnea and he's not concerned which is good. Most preemies have it and they usually grow out of it by the time they leave.
On a side note, Lucas smiled at me today which was super cool. Granted he probably had no idea that he was smiling, nor did I likely have anything to do with it, but it was cool.
On a sad note the baby that I mentioned in a post the other day did not make it. We were in the room yesterday while the family was there. Their priest came in and baptized the little guy which was cool. Please continue to pray for the little boy's family as they mourn.
Please continue to pray for Luke's health and continued growth.
Cheers,
Colin

We will continue to pray for the family of the little guy that was in Luke's room. May our Lord send His comforter to be with them.
May the God of our fathers continue to strenghten Luke's lungs. May He lay His hand upon Luke to give him sleep without apnea and to keep gaining weight.
God bless all here,
Don Tomas
