Thank you for making him safe and comfy. Thank you for him to breathe." It made me cry. It was very sweet..and she is very concerned about him.

Your faith, hope and testimony are also a blessing to us. <br />I printed a couple of picture from your blog of you and Dakota to put on our frig, I hope it's alright. Thank you for sharing updates on Dakota's progress and your experience.

Each night when Mckaley prays, she asks God to look after Dakota and then she gives Bixbie a shout out as she so remembers her time riding at your parents house :) Thanks for all the updates and I am so glad you got to hold your baby boy. What a wonderful feeling that must have been! Its a feeling that will never be taken for granted by me after reading all of your experiences. You and Zach are role models for all of us parents. Throughout this time you have been so empathetic, brave, and honest. <br /><br />All our best!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17853468695478294142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611856663576328123.post-25818394577479622362010-12-18T21:56:17.335-08:002010-12-18T21:56:17.335-08:00I can't even imagine how wonderful it felt to ...I can't even imagine how wonderful it felt to get to hold him again!

I promise trach care gets easier everytime you do it and once he's all healed it won't be painful at all. Its funny because often times when I'm doing teach care on my patients they get a little annoyed because they love the way their mommies do it. You'll find your perfect technique and no nurse or RT will be as good as you in his eyes! I'm glad to see he's going to neuro rehab. He'll progress a ton there and I look forward to watching his progress on this blog!! God bless and he is in my prayers every night (even though I haven't even met him)!!

We had a layover at the Phoenix airport and we were only about 10 minutes from you guys! I wanted so badly to come visit but, by the time we got through security and everything there wasn't any time! :( I think we'll just have to make a special trip down sometime soon! We love and miss you guys so much and pray each and every day for Kota!Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14341047605456764280noreply@blogger.com
