Baby Fadhel 2

I apologize for not updating everyone about baby Fadhel,
I posted this on Facebook on Tuesday, June 28, 2011 at 1:35pm




Yetsreday Baby Fadhel celebrated his 1 month birthday, to me a milestone that at
times I was losing hope of seeing it coming, el hadmulillah.

Fadhel was disconnected from the ECMO "the artificial lung" on Friday June 10th, if I
recall it right, it was the first good news we hear after he was connected to
it. He was placed on a ventilator for around 10 days and then a week ago they
started letting him breathe on his own.

Two days ago I held him in my arms for the first time after he was born, I was beside myself with joy, and I wish time slowed down then just to let me get enough of holding him.

right now he breathes a bit faster than normal babies, and he just
started learning how to suck formula from a bottle.

He is being weaned off medications, and basically he's in the recovery process.

I cannot be more grateful for your prayers and wishes for him to get better, I'm in complete
owe.

He came a long way, and it was all with Allah's SWT willing and
your prayers.

We visit him daily and can't wait for him to come home.

So thank you from me personally, and our family to each and everyone of
you.
