update!

Thought it was time for an update! Leanne was discharged from the hospital on Friday and has been resting and recovering. Since Leanne and Ryan cannot be at the hospital with Leo all the time, Grover keeps Leo company.

 Leo took a vacation under the lights and mom and dad had to join in the fun with their shades!

And lastly, Leo got to wear his first outfit ever! Then, later he initiated his mommy and daddy into the parent club by peeing and pooping on them :)

Leo update: He is doing great, off all oxygen, moving in the right direction. Eating more every other feeding and decreasing his IV. Loves skin to skin snuggle time with mom and dad. Again, he is doing great!

Leanne update: Her oncologist said Friday that the tumor looks like the medicine is working already! Praise the Lord! We go back in 3 weeks to determine what the next step is.

Thanks for continuing to pray for Leanne, Ryan, and Leo. Here are some specific requests:

• Praise! They are so thankful for the nurses and doctors that cared for Leanne this week and their wisdom and compassion.
• Praise! For Leanne and Ryan being able to snuggle Leo daily.
• Praise! They are so thankful for the knowledgeable nurses and doctors that care for Leo daily.
• That the tumor would keep responding to the medicine and shrinking.
• That Leanne would continue to heal from surgery.
• That Leo would keep growing and doing well.
• That Leanne and Ryan would have peace as they leave Leo each night. They know he is in the best hands but it is still hard.
