APRIL 2ND

Today only Joey went to visit Ryan because Alec was at home sick so Lisa stayed with him.

Joey showed up just in time to help with Ryan's "bath", which consists pretty much of wiping him down with a wet towel. However, it was great since Joey had not had an opportunity to be with Ryan at bath time before. Joey said that Ryan did not like his bath and fought against it! Afterwards he was awake and rested comfortably.

Ryan is still having respiratory issues, but they have not worsened. The doctors are tweaking his oxygen and caffeine to help him breathe easier. Still, for being born at 28 weeks and 3 weeks old, he is doing fairly well.

Please keep Ryan in your thoughts and prayers!

Lisa, Joey and Alec
