Another long day at the hospital

Well, our little Tristin is still in the hospital...I feel helpless! Cari said he didn't have a good night last night. They finally gave him Tylenol and that seemed to help him sleep. When I spoke to her at noon, they had put a feeding tube in his nose...oohh...makes me want to cry. He had not eaten since 7:00 a.m., so at noon they decided he needed the tube. He is so congested, it is just hard for him to eat. She said he slept from noon until 5:30, so he really must be exhausted! I think Cari got a little nap in there at some point. I assume they took the feeding tube out, because he nursed and then took a bottle around 6:00 p.m. and then he dozed back off. She said he finally smiled at them tonight...which is so unlike Tristin...he is such a happy baby. They will clean his nose again tonight, and that is no fun at all. They are watching his chest...that shows how labored his breathing is and it seems that he is still having a great deal of trouble. His lungs are still congested. Cari and Kevin are just exhausted. Please continue to pray for Tristin (and Cari and Kevin). Hopefully, tomorrow I will have much better news and they will be headed home!
