smallest angels

way back, in the first few days of life, luke survived with the help of a ventilator. he had and still has many wires attached to him. they tell his caregivers his heartrate, his oxygen level and his respiratory rate. and those are all attached to an orchestra of dings and dongs we're slowly learning to rate. i've figured out what most of them are and what i can do to either fix it with baby or quiet it so as not to disturb the little guy. it looks a little scary, and it is, but i started to share our story to honor the hope i have that luke will pull thru and be the little boy we imagined...running and playing with his brother, without any deficits from his early birth....
