Check out my fingers; I bit all my nails off!!

Check out my fingers; I bit all my nails off!!

 Zachary had a pretty good night, but he is still having a lot of trouble trying to fall a sleep at night. He is still having some Hallucinations about black spiders crawling on him. Zachary had a great day yesterday with lots of visitors and Paul the volunteer came to visit and sang songs with us last night; Zachary really loves his company.

Zachary is still tolerating his Pedialite at 17cc an hour; which is AWESOME!! They are planning on upping his feds to 20cc an hour and then we are going to try half strength of Peptem JR and Pedialite. If he can tolerate half strength then it is time to party!!!!

Our goal to get out of  here-

is for Zachary to tolerate 70cc  an hour for 24/7of his Peptem JR. We still have a ways to go, but at least we are moving forward!!!!

Zachary needs to get off his TPN!!

Zachary’s Iron needs to go up

Zachary needs to get off of all his IV meds

Please keep Zachary in your prayers,

Stacey

Prayers you can go up on the feeds!!!!! We prayed extra hard for Zachary yesterday at church and every night too. Hang in there guys!!!!!

Hey Zach ! How goes it ? I hear that hospital has a problem with silly old spiders. Heard a rumour today that spiders are afraid of Snowy Owls from Canada.So if you sit Snowy upright on your bed with his wings spread out in “Guardian mode” he might scare the spiders & make ‘em run away. Just something I heard. I wonder if it works ?? Keep feeling better button. Aunty Fern wants you to get well and so do I . We love you.
