When will another good day come???

So Its been a few days since I have updated and thats because we have been having a few not so great days. Bryce is still on the Hi Fi and on high settings. He had a pretty bad night last night, they had to change out his breathing tube because they thought maybe it was clogged and thats why he was not satting well, but that wasn't it..... He still desatted a few times after that. He had an OK day today but by the end of the day he started acting up again.... Hopefully though he will have a good night tonight. Good news today though Bryce and I both found out we DO NOT have MRSA which is very good! Some possible bad news too though, seems like if Bryce's PDA doesn't close by the end of the week we will be transferred to Boston Childrens Hospital to have the surgery.... I guess there is no Cardiac Surgeon on at Memorial until next Thursday and Bryce may not be able to wait that long. Please pray that it closes because I don't think I can handle going to Boston! Thanks again to everyone who has looked at this site and posted to it. It helps allot knowing everyone is there for us and I enjoy reading the comments! Keep'em coming! I will hopefully have some good news tomorrow!

Hi Erika,

I heard about your hospital admittance from Alicia back when she was in the hospital, and I have been praying for you! Now that your precious little boy Bryce is out in this world I have continued to pray for him and your family! He's absolutely adorable, and definitely seems like a little fighter! Its so good that you post this website so everyone can stay updated, because you have so many people that care for you and your family! Take care hon!!
