Another blessing from God.

Koa has had a good day. His oxygen needs are at 27 to 30% all day. He also had an echo done on his heart. To make sure that everything has healed up from the hypretension in his lungs. Which caused his heart to get thick. But everything was really good. So tomorrow they might try to give him steroids to help him get of the vent. If they don't try they wont know if it will work or not. And he has been doing good lately. They really want to get him off the vent, cause its caused more scare tissue in his lungs. They think he is doing good enough to do the steroids. I know they wouldn't do this if they didn't feel comfortable with everything. The Doctor seems really confident. So they will put him on a Cpap. So we get to hear him cry for the first time. I am so excited.
Thank you everyone for all the prayers and support.
Thank you God for helping/ healing Koa.
Love
Koa, Jeremiah and Courtnie

We are praying everything goes as planned and you can hear him cry for the first time. It will be awesome for the two of you. However now you will hear him protest to things more often too. He will make sure he lets them know. Looks like things are really going well and he keeps getting bigger. With small steps come big miracles. Love to you all and hugs and kisses from all of us Aunt Lori, Uncle Mike, Matt, Chris, Shannon and Colleen.

I was so excited when I read about the progress of yesterday! I told Terry that soon you'd be hearing Koa cry for the first time and his response was, "Well, that's the end of their peace and quiet for a long time!" Ha! We are so happy for you all. Take care - Jan and family

The mighty tiger gets to roar at everyone! How wonderful all the good news is to hear. So happy for all of you. Your faith in God and the Dr.s is paying off a hundred fold. It's amazing how far he has come in these past weeks and the progress he has made. What a terrific wonderful little boy our Koa is - a special gift from God for sure.

Tell the doc to give him extra on those streoids...he is going to need some muscle to fight those King salmon when we stop at the river on his way home!!

Glad to hear things are continuing to improve. I only heard from Jeremiah once this week while he was here in Fairbanks...I figure he must have been busy and worn out from needing to be a "working man" again.

I miss all of you and look forward to seeing you again.
