Tuesday night my mom sent this letter to some of her friends and I figured I would post it on the blog until I had more time to post.
> Hi Friends,
> Just wanted to give you an update on Baby Tommy. He is doing well. He weighs 6 lbs. 14 oz. and is 18 1/4 inches long and I might add, he is quite handsome with all of his dimples!!
> > We want to thank all of you for your prayers and support over the last few months. He had his CT scan today and everything looked better than expected. He does not have hydrocephalus now and so at this point, he will not need shunt surgery. He is going to visit the pediatric nuerosurgeon in about 2 weeks and will have an MRI done then which will show more.
> > The basic things we were worried about before birth was that he would be able to breathe on his on and also that he would be able to feed well. Thankfully he is doing both! He is able to be in the room with Holli and Tommy and will hopefully come home tomorrow. Unfortunately, because of health concerns, he won't be accepting any visitors except grandparents for a while (needless to say, we have some very anxious siblings, but we will do what is best for baby Tommy).
> > We are just praising God for this precious gift he has given our family. We are extremely proud of Holli and Tommy. They have grown up so much in the last few months. They are already proving to be wonderful parents. That baby is one lucky little boy to have them and I can assure you that Holli and Tommy feel extremely lucky and proud to be his parents.
> > I am not sending a picture because Holli wants to be able to have that special honor of posting the first pics online. However, if you happen to be at Sunday School Sunday, I may have a few to pass around!!
> > Thanks again for all of the prayers and please don't stop them. Please pray that his MRI will give us even more great news. And by the way, if you happen to know anyone who does not believe in the power of prayer, just ask them to call the Donalds and the Bergs!!!
> > Love to all of you,
> Connie and Cliff
