Eye Surgery

So it looks like there is still a possibiliy for the eye surgery for Bryce's ROP. Dr. McCabe came in today and checked Bryce's eyes again, they are getting a little worse every day, his right is especially bad. He will not do the surgery tonight but will come back Monday or Tuesday to chekc his eyes again. May need it by then, may grow out of it.... we'll see.
Bryce is now 3lbs. 8.8 oz., they are considering putting him on nasal cannula, but they want to wait until the possibility of surgery has gone away. That will be a HUGE step for us. Other than the eyes he seems to be doing well (knock on wood) he nurses once a day everyday and is doing well with that, next we will try a bottle and see how he does. I have some new opictures t download soon, I just haven't had the time lately.... They say time flies when you're having fun, but I'm not really having fun and I have no idea where the last 9 weeks have gone. I can't believe we are working on our third month in the NICU, I feel like I should just have my mail sent there, I am there more than home.
