A Great Weekend!

We had a great weekend up here in Cincy, with Cincinnati Walks for Kids and some very special visitors!

Thanks to all who walked and/or contributed to our walk. It was a great success and we can't wait to take our little man next year!

Team Owen ready to walk!
Our shirts were a big hit!
Owen also had some very special visitors this weekend. Uncle Will finally got to hold our little guy! Will met Owen the day he was born, but has not been able to see him since then.

Owen loved being held by Uncle Will...so much he was snoring!
Owen is doing great with dialysis and has recovered remarkably well from surgery. He is eating well and taking at least half of his feeds by bottle. He is currently up to 110ml on dialysis. Doctors are hoping to get up to 160-180ml before we can go home. At that time he should be on a 12 hour schedule. So when we go home he will only need dialysis at night and we can unhook him during the day! I can't wait to be able to hold Owen and actually walk around with no tubes hanging around!

Continue to pray for Owen's progress. Thank you all so much for your encouragement and support. We still have a long road ahead of us, but The Lord is faithful and we see His blessings each day in the eyes of our sweet boy!
