Sean's Journey 8.17.11

We just got home from visiting Sean.  Daddy held Sean for a long time.  Sean was so peaceful in Daddy's arms.  Daddy spoke with Sean and sang a few songs to him. 

Sean continues on the nasal cannula.  Overall, he is doing better with his breathing.  He's at 26 - 30% oxygen. 

Sean has been swollen since last week (Edema - swelling in the body caused by fluid).  "Edema is common in premature babies, whose urinary and circulatory systems are not fully developed."  Sean was given a diuretic to help with the Edema.  "Diuretics referred to as ‘water tablets remove excess fluid from the body by increasing the production of urine."

Thank you for your support & prayers.
Sean's Mommy & Daddy
