Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Stopped in to check on Jack this morning, he had a good night. His sugar level was steady all night, his weight was up just a little to 2lbs. 12 ounces, look out three pounds here we come. Although his IV will remain for now we are hopeful it can be removed soon. Thanks for those prayers overnite, they helped.

Happy St. Joseph's Day to All

Glad to hear Jack is doing fine this A.M. The good news is that he is 2lbs 12oz. WOW! I'm sure the sugar thing will eventually be OK. Jack's a tough little guy to have to deal with all those needles. I'm am always thinking and praying for him and you guys.
Love,
Great Aunt Cathy

The Manna's are reading the website daily and love reading the fact that Jack is 2 lbs 12 oz. He is so cute - His girlfriend Nora Manna can't wait to meet him! Kevin of course reviews the site daily for pictures of his girlfriend Nora, the Godmother! All of you are in our prayers.

There's nothing like dating a 9 year old, especially one like Kevin Manna!

I'm glad to see my Godson is such a strong guy--some day he will be big enough to join "Brother in Law Movers" and maybe kick Peter McD out of the business. Love ya Jack, see you soon!

Love, Aunt Nora Houlihan

We check the blog every day for Jack's progress ... and it's nice to see he's doing so well.

I'm so happy to read about Jack's growth! He is going to be at 4lbs before you know it! He is always in my thoughts, and I am confident that the strength of friends and family, as well as his own spirit, will bring forth powerful gains!

Love, Cousin Julia

So glad to continue to read about Jack's many accomplishments and to see that he continues to move upwards on this hill. He is blessed to have such loving parents, family and friends. You are all in my daily thoughts and prayers!

Wow! 2 pounds 12 oz.! Sounds like Jack is doing great! Thank you so much for this wonderful blog, Margaret and Jim. It is so great to read about Jack and his progress. I know that you have heard many "preemie success" stories, but here's another one. A very good friend of mine had a nephew that was born at 2 lbs.
2 oz. (a lucky weight!) and is now a heathly three-year-old who runs crazy around his house every day. Soon enough you will be chasing after your darling Jack, too! Take care and know that you are all in our prayers.
Love,
Lynn

Okay, that's not an "anonymous" comment, apparently I'm just not smart enough and hit the wrong button! So, it's from the Harrington Clan!

I think Jack and I should start a race to see who can gain weight the fastest! He's given me some strong competition!

Keep up the good work Jack!

Love Aunt Molly

I love catching up on the news of my godson-in-name-only, Jack. The pictures are great and I liked the Irish theme for St. Paddy's Day! Priceless! I agree with Kevin Manna, too, we want to see some pictures of Nora (Reese) Houlihan! And of course, pictures of Kathleen, Molly, & Bridget, too.
