After a month of being on oxygen, Joshua finally graduated from it. But we were told to keep the oxygen machine at home for another 2 months just in case he needs it. They'll do a test again on his oxygen sats in 2 months and will decide whether to keep the machine or return it.
He's sure glad to be free from it though!
He also had his thyroid checked, (he has hypothyroidism). Everything is still the same in terms of taking his regular pill/levothyroxin and will be checked again in a year. Hopefully, his thyroid will work on its own and won't need those pills anymore.
He is also walking on his own now and loves the freedom he has.
Last week, they had their regular eye check-up at the Children's and they still haven't decided when to do a surgery on Joshua's drifting eyes.
Joscel's case is still the same, her right eye is still weak so more eye patching to do until June.
They are also on QVAR puffers until September to prevent severe asthma attack.
It may sound like that our kids are high-maintenance (I guess they are) but we already expected that when they came out a little early. We are just glad that God has been in control ever since and that they are in good health and growing normally and I would say, they are really smart!
