Phurst, definitely an awesome feeling. My mother couldn't believe I was crying when I got to hold him. An earth moving experience in my book.

Congratulations on your new blessing. He is in my prayers for speedy progress. (Our son was born at 36 weeks. It took him a while to get on the growth charts but he is now a big burly 19 year old and you would never dream that he was a tiny premie.)

Congrats, went through something similar last year. It's not easy, but it's well worth it.

Thank you all. Sorry for not replying earlier. I have been driving back and forth to the hospital at least twice to bring him his food and spend some time with him. He is doing great and expected to leave the hospital on Monday.
