Tuesday Night

The abundance of visitors has slowed down now that the weekend is over and it has been great for Casey, Angie, and the Wheeler family to get some rest and down time. But please don't let that discourage you from coming! We love visiters and Casey enjoys seeing everyone who comes! :)

Casey is getting more and more tired everyday, but just as the doctors predicted, he is fighting and hanging in there longer than others do/have! He has not had any liquid from an iv or nutrients through his feeding tube since late Friday afternoon.  His feeding tube still remains attached as a way to easily and comfortably give him his medicine everyday. His coughing has increased so they put him on a new cough medicine and its definitely seemed to help him.  He also can't mouth or whisper any words anymore, but he will open his eyes and try to look at you even if its not exactly in the right direction. And Casey still LOVES holding hands! :) Alot of the time when you try and let go of his hand to leave, just when you think you're good to go, he grabs your hand tighter and doesnt want it gone. It's the cutest thing!

Our older sister Celeste and her daughter Emery were able to Skype with us and it was great. She talked to Angie and Casey for quite a while and little Emery sang Casey two lullabies before he went to bed. It was so adorable!
