More good news

The surgeon doesn't think that Joshua will need surgery! They think he just needs to learn how to do it on his own. They have been feeding him Pedialtye and tomorrow will change over to breast milk, if all goes well. They took him off the antibiotics (which he was receiving since he wasn't getting breast milk) and removed the tube from his mouth. Once he is drinking 40cc's, he will be able to go home! The earliest this will be is 4 days from now.

I think that's it ... I wasn't able to write info down tonight. Tasha & Bob were on the way to get a neck brace for Tasha tonight.

Oh - I forgot. Joshua will have another ECHO on Monday, to see if the valve has closed. The pediatrician said that she will not be worried if it hasn't closed yet.
