15 March

The boys were doing wonderfully today when we visited. Austin had his PICC line taken out today which is great news! He no longer requires the extra IV fluid he was receiving. He is surviving solely on mommy's milk at 25ml every 3 hours! Having the PICC line taken out is a major milestone as it lessens the risk of infection and shows that his little body is growing and becoming stronger. Aiden still has his PICC line in and probably will for another few days. But he is progressing well and his milk intake increased to 17ml every three hours. This is a short entry, but the shorter the entry, the better they are doing so we are very happy tonight :).   Sweet dreams Austin and Aiden...we love you!
