The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

The Good 
1. We are fortunate enough to have access to great medical care and we are where we need to be in order for RF to get better. Our nurses have been super sweet and supportive. 
2. We are all three here together as a family. 
3. We have seen a few smiles from RF in the past day or so.
4. RF's respiratory therapist said that his lungs are sounding clearer. 
5. I am getting lots and lots of baby snuggles. 
6. We have received sweet texts, FB messages and emails from folks who are thinking about and praying for us. 

The Bad
1. RF's oxygen levels still have not improved yet and we cannot leave the hospital until he is completely off the oxygen both day and night. 
2. Hospital linens are pitiful and hospital food isn't the tastiest. 
3. We are not able to make the trip to Perry to see all of RA's family for the holidays. 

The Ugly 
1. My sweet boy is sick. He is such a happy, curious, animated and on-the-go little man, to see him so subdued, so cruddy, so upset is heartbreaking. 

And then there's the perfect...
This little man is my heart.
