It's all up to Ian now!
Ian's tube has been removed again. This we hope for the last time. Now he is feeding when he wants to, not when the Doctors have scheduled him to. Today went quite well considering his sleep /eat patterns were disrupted so as long as Ian can show moderate weight gains over the next few days, he'll be booking himself a ticket home. Tonights photo shows Mom holding her little boy and giving him all the encouragement that he needs. Weight: 5lbs 3oz.
