8 Weeks Old

Baby Jesse is 8 weeks old today. He has had a rough week this last week, but is currently sleeping peacefully. They attempted to feed him last Thursday night which amplified some problems in his intestines. He had a large amount of air in his small intestines which was not moving into his large intestines. This caused pressure on his lungs and heart. His whole body has swelled again and fluid started to collect around his lungs. He now has a chest tube in the right lung and they are hoping to not have to put one in the left lung. He is doing well this morning and resting peacefully. He waves his hands at you, which is really cute. He has been through a lot these last eight weeks, but he continues to amaze us. All your prayers and love are much appreciated.
