Day 33 - Welcome Elisa, Occupational Therapist


Today started out as a normal day with a call to the NIC-U to see how the night went and so on. It wasn't till roughly 5:15pm that this day turned out great. At that time, we were getting the baby ready to eat dinner when we met Elisa, NIC-U Occupational Therapist, who said it was time to give this little man a chance at the ol' bottle.

She was surprised that the doc asked for the OT Eval at such an early age and prepared Erin and I for a let down, but my little man took that as a challenge and knocked back 30 out of the 37 CC's he was due to eat at that time. Needless to say, the OT was stunned!!!!

This is a giant step for the little man and his pathway home.
