The Strength of a Baby

Last month a child was born. He was given the name Timothy James "TJ" Ranagan. He was born 3 lbs. 13 oz. and 16 inches long. I can't believe all that he has been through in the past month. He has been proded and poked, tested over and over, been through so much pain, and through it all he has been such a fighter! He has more strength than anyone I have ever met! He was born 10 weeks early. He has been diagnosed with a handful of different things and being tested for each of them. He was born at Utah Valley Medical Center and later transfered to Primary Children's where is currently is. Through all of the craziness going on around him he has overcome so much. It's amazing to me how a baby can have so much strength! Much more strength than I ever have had! He truly is a miracle! He is doing so good right now! The swelling in his brain has gone down and the blot clot is diminishing. He has gained weight again and the color in his skin is back. He is now off the ventilator and breathing on his own with just a little bit of oxygen to help. From what I have been told he is happy and smiling! What great news! I am amazed every day I hear news about this wonderful amazing little boy who has such a strength it is unbelievable! I can't wait to watch him grow up and become such a wonderful man I know he will be! Here are some pictures of cute baby TJ!
