Praying for your grandbaby and your family.

YOu got it, grandma.
Prayers go out to your whole family. Dear Lord help them get through this and take care of our little Troy. Amen

Natly, Prayers to Baby Troy and you and your family. It is awesome how much can be done in neonatal units these days. If Troy is anything like his feisty grandma, he will make it through this just fine.

I'm sitting here in tears of appreciation for ALL your prayers and good wishes for Troy. Thank you kindred spirits, warriors and surviors.

Troy opened his eyes last nite and this morning and let his mom and dad feed him. He even whimpered when I was speaking with his mom this morning.

White counts are still down and they do believe he has some type of infection. all test results should be back tomorrow.

We've all been teary eyed, but holding strong. I am in Florida and Troy and his family are in N.C. I do plan to go up there once things settle down.

Cynthia your note has meant so much to me. Reading what you said re: "whimpy white male" syndrome has put my heart and mind at ease. Thank you so very much. I read your encouraging post to Becki this morning.

I feel so blessed to have found all you beautiful, wonderful people. Again, thank you for all the prayers. :0)

HANG ON.......
Prayers your way for your "little guy" and the entire family.....As it has been said, it's not unusual for "early" babies to have some difficulties....Once they identify his problem, then onto treatment and recovery.....He may have "picked up" something in the hospital or Mom may have had some type of infection when he was born and it was "passed along." Not unusual.

Will be thinking of your and keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers.......
Nancy

Ps..........
Let me know when you're coming to NC.........I'll send phone number and hopefully we can get together.......

Speed Bump
I am so glad that I was able to help. The infection part is scary but not at all rare as many researchers believe any kind of infection (even subclinical ones that Mom has no awareness of) can cause irritable uterus and preterm delivery in the first place.

It sounds like it is a speedbump in his recovery and that he will be fine, but give him some time as he is definitely not there yet maturity-wise.

The most frustrating thing for parents is when a preterm infant is off resp support but not nippling, just sleeping all of the time. Just like each baby walks at a different time, each premie will develop a strong suck/swallow at a different time. It is not something you can teach; it is purely a developmental thing and, when they get it, a light bulb will go off overnight and you will wonder why you were ever worried about their eating. I know it is unbelievably frustrating, but please be patient with the little guy and remember that he is not supposed to be here yet.

And, of course, you are big time in my prayers! Give that little WWM (actual diagnostic term, I swear) a big hug from me!

Saying a prayer for your new little gift. And of course for the mom and dad so they may stay strong.

I'm praying for your precious little one
and you're family. I pray that he grows stronger as each day passes.

Keep us posted!
