Our day with Mason

Today was a pretty good day. As you will see Mason has a new device all over his head. They are testing to see if he is having seizuers. He will be able to take these off today at 4:00. They are watching him for 24 hours. The process was long and stinky. They had to glue each of the medal wires to his head and then dry them with a dryer. Through it all my little guy just slept like a pro. I just sang to him and rubbed his cheek. It was much harder on mommy,daddy and grandma to watch. In order to take him home he has to do 3 things :Gain weight, not have seizuers, and keep his flow of oxygen while he sleeps. Because his head is larger , when he tilts his head forward his oxygen levels go down. Nurse Erica has taken great care of him the past two days. We loved having some company yesterday. Adam and Lindsey came by with a fabulous lunch and our nurse let them back to see him :). Kirby and Celeste were in town. We loved catching up. Priscilla, Louise and Mrs. Tragos came to talk to help the time pass. Check out the blog later tonight or tom. morning. Today is Mason's 1 week birthday and were working on a great birthday rap for him. Stay tuned....... :)

Hi Kevin and Wendy: I am a member of Calvary and the Choir and we all have been praying for you since little Mason's arrival! I look at your pictures and with tear filled eyes I am reminded of myself many years ago as my own little Jimmy lay in the NICU at what used to be "Women’s Hospital", now "St. Joseph's" in Tampa. When I say that I am praying for you and that I know what you are going through and feeling.....please believe me....I really do know. It is not possible to put into words what is in your heart and mind. I was incoherent...but God still heard me and understood me. I am praying for you as one who has lived what you are living...feared what you fear and hoped for what you hope. God is good and great my friends...He will never leave your side no matter what happens. God Bless you! Debbie
