Good news on the Bilirubin level for little Graylon. It thankfully went down from 17 to 14 after today's report from Dr. Aldridge. That means that hopefully the "Billy Bed" days are nearing an end. With the Bilirubin coming down, we were told to drop the strict formula-only diet and return to breast milk. We do have to go to the hospital one more time tomorrow for one more heel prick. That means that after tomorrow, Saturday will hopefully be the first day of Gray's life that he won't have to see the inside of St. Mary's hospital. He'll get his perfect little heels pricked for the fifth, and hopefully final, time. I know he's missing recliner time with his daddy. That is top on my list of things to do as soon as we get rid of that blue light bed. Talk to you all real soon.
