hanging in there
Little Maverick had a good night. Nothing has changed - which for now is good. He's still on ecmo, still has good urine output, and his chest tube drainage is decreasing (when they removed the clot last night it picked up a little, but nothing to be concerned about). He still opens his little eyes some and moves his arms and legs some. He's getting a lot more edematous, but it will get better when he comes off ecmo. They are planning on doing a heart echo tomorrow and turning down the flow on the pump while they do it to see how his heart is functioning. If it's doing well they will start weaning him off ecmo tomorrow! More later - jc

Hi Juli & Greg,
Sounds like the little guy is stabilizing a bit. I'm so glad. Thank you so much for the updates. I really look forward to keeping up with how precious baby is doing. Take care of yourselves and rest (if you can). Know that you're on our minds.
Love,
Meredith
I am thinking of you constantly and wishing you the best. I want to know how you are. Are you about to lose it yet or are you just on auto drive. Please take care of you and remember how many of us are thinking of you. I am so glad he is doing well. Can't wait to meet him! I will keep praying!

Yay! Thank you Lord for answering our prayers. I'm thankful you had a good night. Thank you Juli for taking the time to post the updates...it helps us know how to pray and eases my mind. Still praying, Amanda
Hey sweet friend. You have been on my mind all day. I hated leaving you yesterday. I wish I could have stayed and held your hand. I was two hours from home when friend called and said that the kids would be out of school the rest of the week. I was so sad, thinking I could have stayed in Dallas a couple days longer. But know, that if you need me I will come up. I love you. I am lifting you, Greg, and Maverick up right now.
