About Me

I was born on March 1st, 2009... 13 weeks earlier than expected. Both Mommy and Daddy call me their little miracle because I was born without a heartbeat. I only weighed 2 pounds and 2 ounces when I was born, but now I am growing stronger... or at least I think so! This is my story!

We're HOME!!!

2 Stepping

Well I seem to be dancing before I can even walk! In my last report, I said that I was doing well and I was getting fed again. Today... I am stepping back and the doctors are not going to feed me because my stomach is not looking good again. I am going to have a couple more tests to find out what is going on.

Also, the doctors called mommy today on her road trip to tell her that they were going to give me another blood transfusion. Appearantly my blood cells that fight infections are low and they want to boost them. Hopefully this will help me!

I seem to do so well for a while, and I take two steps forward. Then I end up getting sick or I can not eat and I take the two steps back. Who knows... I may be dancing with mommy in the country clubs when I break out of this hospital!

All I can ask for right now is prayers. I am still growing and getting stronger, but for those who are wondering- I am still not able to poop on my own. I am waiting to see that ever eventful poop dance everyone has been promising!

Well, I have to go!

Love,
Riley

  1. Hi Riley,

    Don't wear yourself out trying to get big and strong all at once. Slow down, pace yourself, and continue to move forward as you've done so well. I'll say a poop prayer for you tonight.

    I love you bunches!
