On September 16, 2008, our lives were forever changed when James Wilson (J.W.) entered the world. He is a living miracle who has touched our hearts and revealed to us the greatness of God. This is his amazing story.

Tristin's first time holding JW

Sunday, October 26, 2008
Today was Tristin's first time to see and hold her new little brother. She waited very paitiently over almost six weeks to even see him for the first time.
We arrived at the hospital, washed our hands and put on our gorgeous outfits they provide for you to wear, you know those ugly hospital gowns you put over your clothes.
Then we went to JW's bedside where Tristin finally saw him face to face.
JW was doing good today, he was up to 4 lbs, 15 oz. He looks like a little chubbo compared to six weeks ago.
He was getting x-rayed only every 8 hours instead of 6. They were x-raying his intestines to check for purforation. Everything is looking good as far as the infection and colitis goes. He will still be on antibiotics for a while longer and he will still be off of milk for a while also.
He continues physical therapy and I work with him as often as I can.
Hopefully soon he will be at the 5 lb mark. He continues to improve and grow with the grace of God's hands.
