    Minimus ...

    Obviously, all of us are very concerned and wish you and your family a healthy new addition to your family.

    I mentioned this to my wife and she said not to forget to tell you about her brother. He was only 7 months when he was born in Columbia 35 years ago! Although he had access to the best care they had there at the time, it is nothing compared to the advances that have been made since then.

    It's great to hear that your grandson has the quality care that will help him (and your family) to pull through this.

    Please keep us informed.

    Glad to hear that he's breathing better. More mojo for the little man...

    If he's like his grandaddy Min, he'll do just fine

    Are you suggesting that Min is a windy guy?

    Just an update: I came home a half hour ago from the hospital. My daughter will be discharged tomorrow. Hopefully, by next week Ben will be transferred out of the hospital and be at home. he opened his eyes tonight for quite a while. I talked to him and I'm confident he'll make it. he even had his first poop tonite! YAY! He's got under develpoed lungs and a nit of pnemonia which they are successfully treating.

    Thanks for all your comments. I've imparted them to the parents.

    Great news!!!

    You must all feel some relief. When Jada was born she had jaundice and was almost to the point of being transferred to a better hospitol and possibly a blood transfusion. It's a huge worry when they are sick like that when firstborn.

    I know it will be difficult for your daughter to be home while her little one stays in the hospitol.

    Sorry Min, I just found this thread....

    My thoughts are with you and your family. Please keep us posted about your new grandbaby as often as you can.

    Babies are tougher than you think....they come into this world to survive!

    Awww, the plumming works! I remember the relief when both of my babies' bodies showed that they worked as they should and they had all of their 40 fingers and toes
