Eatin Good

I thought our goal was 45ml every 3 hours, but Dr. Gandhi said that was the minimum amount to eat. So my last two feedings I have put down 68ml and 62ml, I'll show them I dont' need any NG tube. Mom and Dad got another meal from Applebees thanks to their good friends Chris and Erika from Columbia Missouri. Dad says they are Mizzou fans, but their OK anyway. Hopefully they can get Mom to stay with them at the Parkway Hotel tonight so she can get some good rest. Especially since they have given up their suite in the waiting room. One of them will stay in the room with me tonight, so I will get some good rest tonight. If anyone is heading this way, be sure to let them know I am very fragile and shouldn't have any little visitors (My Little Bro Kaden won't even be able to see me this weekend).

P.S. Fisher's dad is getting some insulin brought to him today and his Mom is on her way here tonight. Mom and Dad showed him where the Ronald McDonald Family Room was located, so he has access to free laundry, shower and toiletries, and the internet to do his school work.

Wow!! Keeping taking in the food. I can't believe how well you are progressing. I am not sure I will be able to make it this weekend to see you but we shall see. I will definitely be praying for you and even little Fisher. Don't forget to tell mom and dad to keep us updated on Fisher too. Have a good night. Keep eating well!!!

Love

Madox, You keep showing them how strong you are. I'll bet it is nice to cozy up to mom and dad when you can. Keep up the good work and you'll be out of there real soon. We check in everyday to see how your progressing and keep you in our daily prayers.

Glad to hear that things are going well, that most of your baby steps are in the right direction. May Madox keep those angel wings on a little longer and soon you will all be flying home and he can give his wings to another heart baby. We are praying for your whole family and you all are in our thoughts each day. Before you know it he will be turning 3!

Madox~
You are doing such a good job! I just got home and wanted to check in on you and *wow* what a great update! Rock on little buddy!

Today we "blogged" about you and asked everyone to pray extra hard for you and your family...can you feel all that love out there for you? You and your parents are truly amazing. Make sure Mommy and Daddy get to see Mom's belly picture before you decided to get so feisty!

As always, your in our prayers.

Madox-You are quite a special and handsome little man. God is certainly watching over you. May you continue to grow and be strong so you can go home soon! Your mom and dad are special too-in all of the stress of the last week, they have put together this awesome blog to document this difficult time-it will be something nice for you to look back on when you are older and have a family of your own. Sweet Dreams,

Kurt and Jen,
So happy to hear that Madox is eating ...and eating...and eating!! Colton is sure looking forward to meeting his new little cousin when he comes home soon. Please try to rest when you can, you've both been so amazingly strong. Fisher's parents are blessed to have you there, too. We're praying for all of you.
Love ya, Jimmy and Penny
