An update about Nicholas

Just wanted to thank you ladies for your thoughts and prayers. Little Nicholas came home from the hospital yesterday. He had a fairly good night considering the situation. He went to a pediatric opthamologist this morning and the doctor is pleased with what he could see. They are still worried about infection so they need to keep him low key the next few weeks. They won't know the extent of the damange to his eye for a while but they are talking about glasses for this little guy to help the good eye. He returns next Tuesday for another appointment with this doctor and are hoping for more good news. Each day with no infection the better. He took 25 stiches in his eye and those will have to be removed as the eye heals. Not sure what the time frame is for that but I would guess it will require general anesthesia. Thank you all again for those prayers, I do believe they work.

Oh, my goodness...I just read about Nicholas and I got chills running up and down my spine. Thank you for the update and he was lucky to get to a good children's hospital and have surgery right away. That poor baby. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers for continued healing without infection.

Keep on keeping on!
