Samuel Timothy Ryan


Our second son, Samuel Timothy Ryan, was born at 1:12 pm on July 22nd.  He was born at 32 weeks and is currently in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).  Thankfully, he is breathing on his own, but due to the fact his lungs are so young, they are helping him with a CPAP (forced air) machine.  He's been on and off of it for the past 24 hours.  He's been taking feedings through a tube into his stomach and an IV.

Yay! An update! Maybe you should post the email you sent out. It doesn't sound as depressing as your blog post does. We can't wait to meet him!
