Daniel Update

Points of celebration

1. Bless him, Daniel is still on oxygen during the day but it is coming down – good news.
2. He has had a hearing test, which is on the whole good but has some fluid in his left ear so will be retested.
3. Daniel is very nearly crawling (quite difficult when he has all the oxygen tubing to contend with…) and his muscle tone is strengthening.
4. He cut his first tooth today, 9th March.
5. Daniel has feeding difficulties but is learning to take solids.
6. He is such a happy child.

Prayer Requests

1. Unfortunately, Daniel has an infection in his wound from his stomach operation in December. Please pray that this would heal totally.
2. There is some medical debate about whether Daniel needs his stomach operation repeated. He has a consultant’s appointment at Great Ormond Street on 22nd March, which could determine whether an operation is necessary.
