3 lbs, 12 oz

Cole's moving up in weight to 3lbs 12 oz. The bottle feeding has begun in earnest and he's slowly taking to it. An occupational therapist will be coming in to help teach him the suck-swallow-breathe system for feedings.
The retina specialist decided that the right eye scarring had progressed enough that he did laser surgery Saturday. The left eye has stabilized, and the eye specialist is optimistic that his vision will be fine in both eyes. Everything else is fine.

I'm so glad, I know this is something no one wants or should go through, but I'm so proud of the both of you. Please hug each other for me.
Love, Aunt Kandy
