Another Miracle

Today Connor had typical 5-day-old heart and brain ultrasounds.  Typically in a preemie there is bleeding or broken vessels and in an extreme preemie (before 29 weeks) this is very often the case.  When they got the test results back, there was absolutely no signs of bleeding in either the heart or brain.  How many times will this baby prevail against all odds?!  His 2 major valves in his heart are working perfectly, the minor ones are not quite perfect yet, although if they were the doctors would be shocked.  He has been taken off insulin and his blood sugar has continued to be steady.  In fact, he is doing so well that they will be taking him off the ventilator and putting him back onto the CPAP where he will be breathing room air.  Thank God for Connor's strength.

And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You. - Psalm 9:10
