Ty Carl Buffington December 25th Update

Things are going pretty good for Ty. Last week he was put on the nasal cannula. Unfortunately he still wasn't ready for it. This was the second time that they tried him on it. This time he lasted 5 days, but when they did his usual blood test they found out that the level of carbon dioxide was very high. Basically his lungs were able to get the oxygen that he needed but they were not able to blow out the carbon dioxide. This is caused by not having enough air in your lungs. So they had to put him back on the CPAP.

We're not viewing this as a bad thing. It does make us a little sad that we won't get him home as soon as we wanted to, but that's ok. He's just not ready yet.

The doctors said that we would probably be another 2 months here. So we're making plans to be here for a little while longer.

We've been able to spend a lot of time with Ty this weekend! He just loves being held! He's starting to smile more and loves watching TV! Since his hernia surgery, he has been so good! He has been so happy and just loves to have company! The nurses have all said that he is such a snuggler! They said that they really like having him because they get to hold him and snuggle with him!

We are just so lucky that we have him! He is a blessing from God and he's going to touch so many people's lives!!

Well from what I hear, we've taken over the title of the oldest baby in the NICU. You know what though, there's babies that have been here alot longer with alot worse problems! We're just taking it day by day! We'll get home!

Please be sure to visit their Christmas page. There is a link to it below! Thanks for all your support and prayers!

Next year for Halloween I'm going to be Stan from Southpark.

I have to practice my smile for the Ladies...

Mom gave Ty a Mowhawk!

When I go to bed I like to have my blankie!
