Movin' time
There are going to be some big changes for Bryton tomorrow. He is still having some bowel problems, and his belly is very distended again, so the doctors have decided that it would be best to move him to A.I. duPont to do the barium study, and possibly operate. The move will probably happen during the day tomorrow, and thankfully it's a 15-20 drive at most, so he wont be in transport for long. There are a few really awesome things about him being at A.I. duPont; 1) He will be right across the street from Mommy and Daddy so we will really be able to go see him anytime we want, 2) He will be in his very own room, but still closely monitored, and when we decide to spend the night, we can sleep in the room with him, and 3) Even though there will be an entirely new nursing staff, we will continue to work with the same practice of doctors. We aren't to excited about the actual transport part, because who knows what could happen, but we think this would be a good change for all of us. There is a chance that he'll go back to Christiana after he's recovered and tolerating feeds, but there's no telling at this point. Other than that, everything is fine. He had a good night and a good day and they haven't really made any other changes. They did adjust his ventilator settings to what they should be according to his weight, but that's a good thing. Daddy and I are getting ready right now to walk across the street to check out the NICU facility at A.I. duPont, and then hopefully we'll make it over to see our little man. More info. and pics later!

Hi to y'all - glad to see Bryton growing and filling out - he is looking more precious with each picture you posts. I believe you will really like A.I. Dupont Hospital - our Lily spent almost 3 1/2 months there and the nursing staff we encoundered in the Cardiac ICU Unit were most kind. You will enjoy the "upbeat environment" and very pleasent surroundings with wagons everywhere and little children being pulled around in these wagons. I am very excited for Bryton - your Little Angel has been through a lot, has a way to go yet - I know God is taking care of him and giving direction to the Doctors and Nurses as they go about their professional business of "taking care of all the "little angels in the hospital. I think also about how much easier it will be for you both to visit Bryton - some of your stress, just in coordinating volunter drivers to take you to Christiana will be a major hurdle that will be replaced by your being able to just walk over to the hospital. Take care - and know I have Bryton in my prayers that all will go well with the surgery if needed.
Love to all 3 of you - Aunt Connie from Milford, De.
