Go Bucks!

Not really a whole lot new to report on Logan. The most exciting thing for both him and Dad was that they got to watch Logan's first OSU/Michigan game this past Saturday. Logan wasn't nearly as interested in it as his dad would have liked, but he did look adorable in his OSU gear(his shirt says "Poop on Michigan" by the way. Sorry uncle Chris!) . And since OSU won, Dad was happy for the rest of the day and that is always good!

Logan is still off his oxygen all the time when resting. He is starting to not need it during feeds either. He really loves life off of the cannula so he gets really upset when we put it in his nose. He is still having a really hard time with his feeds. The volume he takes has gone down over the last few days which has been frustrating to say the least. It is obvious to us that something hurts him when he eats, so it is painful for us to try to feed him because we know he is in pain. We had really hoped that by this point he would be done with pain, and it never gets easier to hear him cry. They started him on medicine for acid reflux, even though his case is mild right now. He is also on medicine for thrush, which is sores in his mouth and throat. We are not convinced that this is the what is causing his pain, but at least we are being proactive about a possible problem. His hernias seem to be a growing problem because they hurt him all the time and he always seems so uncomfortable and unhappy. We are supposed to be talking to the surgeons this week about possibly operating on the hernias in the very near future. If this happens, hopefully he will be more comfortable during feeds and therefore start eating more from his bottle.

Please continue to pray for Logan's feeding and pain - whatever the cause may be. We just want him to be happy and comfortable. And most of all, we want him to come home to us soon.

Love,

Meghann, Lance and Logan
