Well looks like I am having some issues with uploading the newest of pictures. I will have to find some time to try to figure out what the issue is, but for now I don;t have the time to do it. Sorry.
Anyway, its been a pretty good couple of days, today the switched Bryce back to CPAP for a second trial, but this time he has been on steroids so that may help, we'll see. He's been on it for a few hours and "knock on wood" he seems to be doing well with it. Some potential bad news today though, Bryce had his eye exam earlier than expected and he does have stage 2 ROP (retinopathy if Prematurity) in his right eye. Its not a huge concern for the docs yet because it is only in one eye so far and its only stage 2 which I guess isn't terrible, but they will give him an eye exam every week to watch the progression and if it does get worse they will have to do surgery. So just another thing to watch put these guys are pros and know what they are doing! Bryce also did lose 15 grams today so that drops him to 2lbs. 1.5 oz. not to bad but I would rather him stay the same or gain not lose. So thats about it today! Thanks again for everyones support and prayers, it's what is getting us through!

Thank you for posting the updates on Bryce - I think about you guys often. Talk about coincidences - Amanda had been talking to her girlfriend about Bryce and her mom had overheard the conversation. She told Amanda that a cooworker of hers had a child born on either 4/14,4/15 or 4/16 at 24 weeks also. At first Amanda thought it was Bryce but the childs name is different. I hope you don't mind, but Amanda gave her your website address - I hope you don't mind. Just remember that there are so many people pulling for Bryce, even people who have never met any of you, it is amazing. Well, I hope you are able to figure out the problem w/your camera so that you can post some new pictures soon. He is such a little cutie and a brave young man at that. Have you been pooped on lately?
Love ya,
Ellen
