the eric update - day 95: cliffhanger

hmmmm. what news could have prompted an impromptu celebratory hand game with lots of singing and smiling? could it possibly be that we learned when he might be able to come home?

perhaps :-)

i am going to try to respect the curse of the nicu and not say exactly when they told us he could go home, but you might not want to take a vacation from visiting the site over the next couple of days! hee. hee.

update: i finally got around to getting caught up on adding postcards that have been forwarded to us from the old nicu ( as always, thanks! ). i suspect that more than a few people might want to send us a postcard sometime in the next week ( hint! ), so i'll remind everyone that you should use the new address if you're going to send a card. the old nicu has been pretty good about forwarding us postcards, but i don't think they're under any obligation to continue to do so and i don't want to abuse their kindness.

Grandma is going to take a little drive to check out a certain little guy to see if he decided to go to a different location. He called me and said he may need to be rocked a little to help with his adjustment to a new room. Thats what grandmas are for. (: (: (:

Great news! I am so happy for you. He is just so adorable! Please promise to continue your web site for Little Eric. (at least once in awhile, so we will know how he is doing...at the "new place".) I check everday for new pictures and to keep up on his progress. He is a little miracle. May God Bless you all!

Oh, sorry for the multiple comments! The site was having a bit of a problema and not taking it. I didn't know it would hold the memory! Sorry! this was my first attempt to comment. Guess, it might be my last! Lori :o)

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
