One step forward, two steps back

The boys seem to be enjoying their new room. Josiah is doing great, continuing to work on mastering the bottle. Gideon has had to go back into his box, though. They also had to go back up on his oxygen from 1 liter to 2 liters. He was just having to work too hard with the lower oxygen level and keeping his temp up. They said he had done much better since making the changes. They both had another eye exam Monday. Josiah's was great. Of course, Gideon is going to be our difficult child:-) His was not so good. The vessels are larger than they should be and there is some concern that the retina could detach. There is a procedure they can do to keep this from happening, so, the eye doctor is supposed to check on him again this week to see how he is progressing and determine if he needs to do that procedure. So that is our prayer request for this week. Of course, we are praying for complete healing of Gideon's eyes, but also for wisdom for the doctors as they determine what to do.
