Brendan is stable and comfortable.  His feedings were changed from 20ml an hour for 24hrs to 22ml and hour for 22hrs.  This just gives him a break in the day as they work toward getting him off continuous feeds to make it easier for him to come home. His blood pressure medication is being increased slightly as well.<\/p>\n<p>Gramma and I went to the hospital this morning with Trevor so that she could spend time with both boys before heading to the airport at noon. We are all going to miss her very much.  It is hard to believe it has been a whole month already!  Thank you, Mom, for all of the love and support and we hope you feel better soon.<\/p>\n<p>I am always prepared for some big surprise when I arrive at the hospital.  Today, it was a cute surprise!
