April 26, 2008

Yesterday we went to see dr. Perello. Michael lost weight. He went from 16.12 to 15.15 pounds. That is a lot for one week. Michael has some feeding issues again since they touched his face constantly (for the O2 or the suctioning). I also tried to feed him some solids again this week, but he doesn't eat more than 2 teaspoons. We'll keep trying. The doctor listened to his lungs and they sounded very clear.
Today was the March of Dimes. We collected $786 in Michael's name. We want to thank Rae and Jules Pincus; David and Lesley Pincus and family; Irene and Evan Katz; Steven and Susan Herrmann; Paul and Tracey Tripp and family; Andy and Nicole Axelrad; Bob Worthman; Lyssett Montiel-Lleonart; John Needham; Jennie Greene; Jane Cucchiara; and Sean, Jolene, Kyra, Morgan, Clara and Ayden (their Angel in heaven) Tuley in Nashville, TN. They donated, without even knowing us, after reading Michael's blog!!!! Thank you all so much!!!
(You can still donate on: http://www.marchforbabies.org/520886)

We also want to thank Celi for making our very nice 'Team Michael - 24 weeks' shirts and onesie (See the pictures below). Celi and her family also wore 'Team Nina/Noah - 26 weeks' shirts and they walked in memory of baby Noah.





Today, David, Lesley, Jessie and Anna came to Key Biscayne to walk with us. The same thing happened like last year. The traffic was so horrendous that we got there when the walk was almost over. It took them 2 1/2 hours to get there. I think that next year we should go to a different location :) Thank you all so much for coming and walking. Nicole and Andy were there also and Nicole walked with us. Andy was giving out beer at the PBA booth and we were able to join them for some BBQ.

Michael was getting really hot and wasn't very happy in the sun, so I took him to the car and put the air conditioning on. I just didn't want to take any chances with him since he just got out of the hospital. Jeff is staying with us this weekend and he also joined the walk. So, Team Michael was great and we had a very nice morning!!
