Wednesday, March 14
This morning while Mom and Dad were visiting Collin, the doctor had him weighed. Collin weighs a whopping four pounds, 12 ounces. (He is getting so many fluids that a lot of that is "water weight". His Grandma N sympathizes!) Dad got to lift Collin and help the doctor move him; they change his head position for comfort and proper development. Dad gave him his pacifier and they thought it was so cute to watch him suck on it. He opened his big beautiful eyes and stared at them, you know he was trying to focus on them to see his beautiful Mom and hairy Dad more clearly! Mom and Dad got a new video camera yesterday and got it all on film. Also, the bandage that covered the site where they initially put the broviac catheter was removed, he is healing just fine. Every day there is a piece of good news and it just buoys our spirits. Your prayers and words of encouragement help...thank you all so much.

This is Fr. Thai from Larimore, ND. Congratulations to both of you and a hearty welcome to Collin Matthew. My prayers are with you and with your baby as he progresses in God's hands through all the physicians, nurses and care takers as His instruments. May their wisdom and knowledge be blessed abundantly by God amd provide a smooth sail for Collin. I am sure Grandma and Grandpa (V) are delighted to see their grandson Collin. Be assured of our prayers. The people of Larimore and members of St. Stephens are with you in prayers. May your delights be increased day by day.

I know all too well what everyone is going through having had my son 6 weeks early. I know all about the sounds of the NICU and what a scary place it can be. I will keep Collin in my prayers that he is strong and continues to thrive. You guys are doing so wonderfully with being there for him. That is the most important thing for him right now. Please let me know if you need anything, even if it's just to talk to someone who's been through this before! Tiffany.Naylor@dm.af.mil Hang in there!!

Hi,
I am a friend/neighbor of Lora, she said you are her stepdaughter and just wanted to let you know your family is in my prayers too. I could tell from talking to Lora that she loves Collins too much already.
my prayers for the baby speedy recovery. His pictures are just precious.
