Prayers Still Needed

So, here's the update on baby Wesley. He's starting to get better, but still has a long way to go. He weighs 7 lbs 13 oz. He's still on the ventilator, but they have been able to slowly lower the support he is receiving from it. We actually got to hear him cry for the first time on Friday. The breathing tube blocks his voicebox, so we normally don't hear anything. However, the tube is getting a little too small, so some air is bypassing the tube which allowed us to hear his cry. It was precious. We have a meeting with the doctors next Monday to discuss his progress and continuing treatment plan. He is very close to being able to go on a c-pap and off the ventilator. If we can get him off the ventilator this week then we can avoid the trach. Please say a few extra prayers this week that he may go off the ventilator so that we can avoid more surgery with the trach.
