Look Ma, No Tubes

Truly God has been kind to Craig Gabriel. All tubes (and sensors) have been removed and he's on his way to full recovery.

I hadn't mentioned here that he experienced just a little bit of lung collapse Wednesday because a tube was irritating them. Not to worry, the tube is gone and the lungs are self-correcting --- isn't God an amazing designer?

Be that as it may, we're excited that his mother can now take him from the incubator and hold him like any other newborn. And, just like any other newborn, he cries when he's wet or hungry! Guess I'll get used to that, huh? Glad to.

There still has been no serious discussion or prediction surrounding when he'll be strong enough to go home. Despite our enthusiasm, we recognize that the stronger he is, the better off he'll be. And, we're patient people.

Thanks for your concern and remember to leave your name and comments.
