Blaine was able to stick his finger into Finn's "little house" yesterday. He said that Finn's entire hand fit on just the very tip of his finger.
Finn is being given a lipid solution (fat) and baby gatorade. He did take milk yesterday. Now we will hope for a BM! That will ensure his entire digestive tract is working.
Finn's veins are so tiny and fragile so they are holding off as long as possible before they try to insert the PICC line again. He does have a large IV in and hopefully that will hold up until his veins develop a little more. He needs blood and platelet transfusions because he does not yet have enough bone marrow to make his own red blood cells and the PICC Line would sure make this easier on his little body.
Finn is a little fighter - keep up the well wishes and prayers - they are working.
Slater and Ballard Grandparents both arrived in Utah last night - I'm sure that was a welcome sight for Blaine and Alli.
Fight on Finn! We love you all!
