 There's Strong... |  Then There's NICU Strong! |
Caleb has such a supportive big brother. Brody has handled the transition so well and although he is sad to see us leave most days, he is being strong! We have tried our hardest to spend as much time with him as possible, but it is definitely difficult when we spend our days at the hospital (and some nights depending on his status). Sometimes, we have to choose Caleb over Brody and it breaks our hearts! Luckily, he has been well cared for...and he always has family and friends offering to entertain him for a while.
We have told Brody that he is a big brother, but that Caleb is very sick and in the hospital. Tim and I have decided that we will wait to introduce Brody and Caleb until things become more stable. The room is pretty scary for adults so we can't imagine what it would be like through the eyes of a five-year-old boy. We talk about Caleb and he asks to visit him, so hopefully, this can happen sooner than later!!!
