Update on Maverick Morris - 2/21

We haven't posted any updates lately because we really haven't had any major changes. He has been having some digestive issues so they have done a series of x-rays to follow a dye they put in his gut to see if there are any obstructions or narrowing of his intestines. After 3 days of waiting for a final result, we have just heard from the doctor and she said that nothing looks out of the ordinary other than his gut is very slow moving. They stopped feeding him about a week or so ago. The doctor said she may consider starting his feeds back tomorrow, slowly and a small amount to start back with.
Other than this issue, Maverick is doing well and thriving. Your prayers have been heard and Maverick is getting bigger and stronger. He now weighs 3lbs and is 16" long.
Dusty and I are so thankful for your prayers. Words can not express how thankful. We are tired and drained, but so full of joy for every second we get to spend with our little boy. Please continue to pray for us. Thank you all so much for talking to our Great Physician about our sweet little guy!
He is getting some Kangaroo Care with Daddy this morning.
