You communicate your emotional roller-coaster very well, Paul, almost too well... And I am moved by the donation and the idea behind it.

Thinking of Kimi, Vanessa and you,

Thank you Paul for the update.
In the weekend there will be a special service in my church for the victims in Burma, and China, I will be there and ask for prayers for Kimi too.
Keep faith in a good outcome.

Just caught this thread for the first time this morning Paul.  Continued love and prayers to you and your family.

I'd missed this thread too, until this point. Paul, my thoughts are with you and Vanessa, as is my deep admiration for your dignity, nobility and courage through it all. My congratulations for your daughter's strength: I hope that it will never fail her.

Major MAJOR improvement!

Yesterday, Kimi was fed 1/2 mm of milk 6 times a day (3mm in total) and for the first time she took it all in. Even better news is last night she had bowel movement on her own for the very first time! I am drinking half a bottle of Merlot to celebrate! I am ecstatic! I am so happy I am in tears, sobbing uncontrollably! It is like ten days of capped emotions finally coming out!

Thank God! Thanks to all of you who have sent your best wishes!

Paul and Vanessa

Excellent news, Paul!

For a second there, I thought you meant minor third rather than little turd . . . .

We are hoping by tomorrow, we will have the minor third in question.

Paul,
I am so happy for you and Venessa and little Kimi.  Take care!  My continued prayers are with all of you.

Quite a relief Paul!
We are happy with both of you. :)

Paul, This sounds like really good news at last. We are looking forward now to the first photos, not too long delayed now I hope.

Best wishes,

Thanks for giving us the latest poop on Kimi's poop.

You must be pooped out.

Welcome news, Paul.  How's Vanessa?

Vanessa is relieved! She has been under so much stress, and blames herself so much, which she really shouldn't. Now it is like a huge weight being lifted off our shoulders. Of course, Kimi is not over the hump yet. But this is a significant development and should lead to better things to come.

Good news!  :)

btw, you have to save this post for when Kimi gets older, even if it's only this part:

The stress must be hard on you both--thank God you have one another.  Our prayers are with you all.
