CCN!!! Happy and sad news all at the same time.

As of 11 pm Friday night 6/1/07 Bryce is stable enough to go to CCN. (continuing care nursey.) Which is still in the NICU but its a different room than what he was in. They moved him overnight. This is GREAT news! He is still sick, but obviously getting better to be able to be moved there. The sad news is that his primary nurse's who I LOVE will not be his Nurses anymore :( except when they work in CCN. I miss them already. But I have to tell myself this is a big step for us, and its one step closer to home! In other news he is now 2lbs. 11.6oz. (as you can see from the scale pic) and seems to be holding his own so far (knock on wood) He is still on VapoTherm 1 liter and 60% O2.

Bryce is absolutely adorable. I cannot believe that he still has his dark hair. Maybe it will stay. It is wonderful that he seems to be steadily gaining weight and doing well. I'm sure that the nurses in the CCN will be just as wonderful as the nurses he has had all along.
Love,
Ellen

Erika,
I have a bunch of 0-3 clothes that I can bring up next week...if you would like them. We are having a girl in September, so we cant use them! Emily gave me this website. We spent 11 days with Cole in the NICU last summer. It was hard. Bryce is making great progress! We are praying for him and your family!
