Remember baby Stellan?
He’s back in the hospital. He caught an illness from his older siblings. They older kids “kicked” it easily, but they think he may have RSV.
His heart rate is VERY high (more than 220), and his oxygen concentration is very low (80% range), both as of last night. These symptoms could be because he’s so sick. They’re worried, however, that it’s indicative of the return of the heart condition that he almost didn’t survive while he was still in Mom’s uterus.
They hope it’s “just” RSV. And they realize how strange it is to hope it’s “just” RSV.
Also, they’re away from home, which makes all of this even more difficult.

How sad! He’s such a beautiful baby boy. I so hope Stellan is able to return to good health soon.
