Good Evening Kolton Support Group (KSG),
I hope this message finds all of you well. We can't state this enough but we want to thank all of you for your continued prayers, kind words, positive thoughts, & generous offerings. I will apologize in advance but this journal entry will be considerably shorter than those in the past. The emotional, mental, and physical demands have finally caught up with our bodies and we are crashing hard, very exhausted.
Kolton is continuing another stellar day with his stats and numbers. We received a call this morning from his nurse notifying us that he is completely off of the ventilator and now he is on a "C-Pap" machine, which helps with apnea (this is a condition, where you forget to breath, typically when you are sleeping, common in premies and adults). His feeding has increased... so instead of eating every 4 hours he is now eating every 2. This is the biggest news today. He also had another one of his iv's removed, I believe that the only one's left are those entering through his belly button. He is still in the process of being weened from different devices and drugs.
Gretchen and I continue to revel in God's healing hands working before our eyes. We would like you to remember all of the other children in the NICU and their families and keep them in your prayers also.
Tomorrow will be an exciting day for all of us to celebrate, Kolton will be 1 week old at 0925!!!
Thank you all for being the wonderful people that you are, we are truely blessed to have people like you in our lives.
All of our Best,
The Thompson Tribe
