Day 16

Roman has grown 3 inches and weighs a little over 8 pounds!  He looks like a big boy compared to the other babies in the NICU, they are mostly premies.  We will post more pics soon!  He's so beautiful! 

He was able to have his EEG yesterday morning, we have not received results from the test yet.  The nurse did come in yesterday evening and gave Roman more of his seizure medicine :( she said they did not have full results but it looked like there had been more seizure activity on his EEG so they wanted to put him back on the medicine to prevent anymore.  TaNia and Saleem have decided to send the results of the EEG and MRI to a Children's hospital to get a second opinion.  This may take a couple of days but they want to be confident that they have done all they can before making any further decisions.  Today has been a hard day, we are all so emotionally exhausted, especially TaNia and Saleem.  We are living on your continued prayers for our strength. Even when we sometimes feel like there is nothing left to do, we have to trust that he CAN!  

Matthew 19:26
With God all things are possible!
