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.

Answered Prayers

Holden is having a good day today. Doctors took him off the ventilator and he is breathing on his own with oxygen support. His color looks good and he was sitting up and watching cartoons earlier. He then held Mommy’s finger and fell asleep while we sang him his favorite songs.

He is currently on a high flow nasal cannula. Doctors will continue to wean him down until he gets back to the low flow system. If things continue to go well, we should hopefully move back to a private room in a couple of days.

We are so proud of our little monkey. What a roller coaster ride for a 6 month old. I can only imagine what he’s going to achieve when he makes it past these challenges and is enjoying life as a healthy happy baby!

I am so happy the procedure went well and his progress coming off an operation is going normally.
Alex and I are waiting to see the little monkey ASAP.
