Kelson had another pretty quiet day. He is continuing to receive albumin to help thicken his blood. These treatments seem to help, but generally only provide a temporary fix.

The doctors have increased his feedings to 9 mL an hour. This is exciting because it means all of his nutrition is coming from breast milk, and not through an IV! Hopefully, without the IV fluids thinning his blood, he will not require the albumin to thicken it, and be to regulate himself.

He is still on the Jet ventilator, and still has one chest tube. The drainage on the chest tube is very inconsistent. Just when it appears to stop, they get a large volume off of it. His heart test was still good, and he is scheduled for an abdominal ultrasound tonight.

Today, I went back to the old house to pick up a few last things, and move the animals. Luckily, we had recently sold the last of our cattle in February, so all we had was a dog, cat, and fish. They all appear to be settling in nicely into their temporary home.

We are officially living with Kristas parents until we close on the new house. It is nice to be able to spend more time with Claire under the same roof.

Tomorrow we close on the old house. Hopefully all goes well, and we are able to move forward with the new purchase!
