Will continues to shrug off surgery like it was no big deal, sleeping peacefully, holding his oxygen and acting as if everything is OK in his world. Then again, that could be the morphine. Whatever it is, we'll take it. As the pain medications do wear off, he might still have some distress and need more support, but we'll deal with that if and when it comes. For now, recovery and stability are the goals. He'll restart eating again this afternoon -- slowly at first -- as he quickly gets back to what constitutes normal for a baby 30 weeks old gestationally.

Thanks for all of the notes and other shows of support. It seems we weren't the only ones holding our breath yesterday afternoon. As has been the case from the start, Will is proving to be the toughest of all of us.
