Impressive

Nicholas is having another good day.  His nurse was able to turn his micro flow down to 150 at 1 point but turned it back up to 175 before his eye exam.  Dr. Teed said his eyes were progressing very well.  The o.t. gave Nicholas his bottle this afternoon and he took 47 ml in 15 minutes.  She said she thinks he would've taken about 75 ml in the allotted 20 minutes if he was awake and more alert (he was sound asleep when she first got there).  Today was also her time to assess Nicholas and she is going to recommend that starting Saturday he starts receiving 2 bottles for 20 minutes each time.  The o.t. also said his reflexes are good and his head turn is also good.  Nicholas is definitely heading in the right direction.
