Our little boy is doing well! He had his first eye examination today and, although his eyes are still (unsurprisingly) immature, there is no evidence of any abnormality caused by the oxygen he has received. Praise the Lord! He will have weekly check-ups until he is discharged from hospital, but today's result was encouraging!

One of the nurse practitioners told me today that the whole team is really pleased with how Daniel is progressing. He is steadily gaining weight (now 1300g!) and is gradually being weaned off the CPAP oxygen delivery system. It is hoped that by next week he will be able to progress onto nasal cannula for his oxygen - and at that point, he will be able to move downstairs to the step down NICU - one step closer to being able to come home!
