If we run out of diapers . . .


It is hard to portray how small he is in pictures. Here is a shot of his diaper which is so large the front flap has to be folded down and the sticky tabs cross over one another. Duncan is doing great today. Tonight when I saw him his oxygen was at 23 percent. 21 percent is what they call "room air" which means exactly the amount you and I are breathing right now. He is looking pale still and they are considering a blood transfusion tomorrow. One nurse told me once he is transfused he will need even less oxygen. We will see how he does. He is still getting 1 cc of milk every 3 hours but that might change tomorrow if he is still doing well.
