Introduction

This blog has been setup to let everyone know what is happening with Jaren. We hope it will be helpful in getting the information out to all who wish to know what is happening and to those who desire to pray for Jaren.

I just got a report back from Mindy, they did Jarens oxygen test this morning and he was at 102, I just found out that he needs to be close to 200 and stay there to come off ECMO. I have had a runny nose and a sore throat for a couple of days so I have been staying at the Ronald Mcdonald house while Mindy goes to check on Jaren and call back and report, it has been a hard thing to endure, but I don't want to take a chance on making Jaren sick.
Jaren is trying to suck on his fingers, but his breathing tube is in the way, his nurse got him a pacifier and cut the top of the backing off so it doesn't get in the way of his tubes. His nurses dote on him all the time, and ask if he could get any cuter.
Ben is bringing a card reader today so we hope to have pictures soon, (how exciting!)
thats all for now, if I hear more I'll post it asap.

  3. Jamie and I know how hard it is to have a child in nicu - and not be able to hold them. Chelsea was in a nicu in Utah, and we sure hated seeing all the tubes, and not being able to touch or hold her. But it was glorious when we were finally able to bring her home! We pray for that day to come soon for you. It sounds like he is strong and heading it the right direction!!! Thanks for keeping us up to date.
    Love, Kevin and Jamie
