It has been over four years now since Holden joined our family. His journey started off bumpy and he's had to overcome some health challenges. But the Little Monkey continues to fight his way to becoming strong and healthy. We are so blessed to have him as our son. He inspires us and melts our hearts every day. Thank you for joining us on this journey. We've appreciated everyone's thoughts and prayers.

Baby Holden Update

Holden looked adorable today in his safari sleeper. He did great with his bottle feeding and after feel fast sleep in Mommy's arms.

Tonight, doctors will start Holden on a medication to try to decrease the pulmonary hypertension. Please say an extra prayer that the meds help. By decreasing the pressure in his chest and expanding his airways, his breathing should improve and he should be able to wean off of the oxygen/nasal cannula.

They will do another echocardiogram on Monday to see if there has been any improvement.

Happy Easter to all of our friends and family. Mommy, Daddy and Holden plan to spend the day together!

David & I have said extra prayers for Holden and will continue through the weekend to pray for God's blessings on all of you. I see the Easter bunny visited a little early and know he will make a return visit to Holden on Sunday. We hope you three have a wonderful Easter. I can see Holden likes to snuggle so enjoy cuddling up with him (when he's 16 he won't even admit to knowing you). Take care. Deborah & David
