Four days old

I am getting stronger, every day counts!
For the first time I put on some weight. A mere 20grams.....but I am so proud!
And I made my first poo!

Here you can see my warm box and Mama giving me one of those heavenly cuddles.




I felt Mama having a bit of a blues day.....they told her she can go home tomorrow, but she doesn't want to go without me.... I told her I will be fine, I am safe here and the nurses looking after me are so good and kind. And I know she will come and visit me every day.

Papa was out of sorts too. Something to do with "work"...I don't know what that is. Anyway I got him to do my nappy ( a first for Papa), feeding me via my tube and then to hold his hand over my head for a very long time. Guess what? He felt so much better afterwards....I could sense his heart melting and a tear rolling over his cheek.....I call that Lucca therapy.








Do I look cute or not?







My Gran visited me today. This time she touched me, she got so excited....and told me how beautiful my skin feels. I wonder when I will see my other grandparents??






This is Max, one of my friends. He sits in my box with me. He makes me feel better just looking at him. And when I am a bit down he sings to me. I call that Max therapy.
My other friend in my box is Whinnie and he has got a cozy blanket he loves sharing with me.
And then there is the big teddy bear outside my box protecting me.....he is so big he doesn't fit in here.

I am so lucky to have so many friends!




I found some messages left for me.....from people I have never meet.....so friendly and so kind, I love it!
