Hi All,
Our little warrior is still doing well. His feeds have been increased to 22mls and his oxygen is down to 25%, which is great. He was sleeping when we were there, only stretching every now and again and making sucking movements, which is too cute for words. The nurses say that the infection seems to be gone so we're so relieved about that!!! He was very happy today because his two favourite nurses were working, sister Sheila and sister Hester. Usually they work in opposite shifts, but today they were together and Caden got lots of attention. We were also so happy to hear that even the night staff reads to him out of his little prayer book and they play his F.R.O.G's prayer for him every night. Isn't it wonderful to have our boy surrounded with so many believers? We were blown away to hear how many people know about and are praying for little Caden. No wonder he is doing so incredibly well. With all these prayers there just can't be any doubt about our warrior's safety and health. I fully believe that our little boy's first "task" on this earth was to bring people closer to God and to remind us about the power of prayer! Thanks so much again for all the inspiring messages we receive on a daily basis! They mean the world to us!
Poor Wes had to work this morning while I had a nice day today attending Anja's stork tea. (Looks like I'm becoming a lady of luxury!). Her little girl Ane is due on the 23rd of April and we already decided that our two "golden eggs" should get married! She received so many beautiful gifts and the setting was just wonderful, very peaceful! When I got home Wes was so tired and had a nice snooze on the couch. Thanks for working so hard for us dad, we really really appreciate it!!! You have been absolutely amazing through-out this journey, just always staying calm and being my rock to lean on. I can see how calm Caden gets when you put your hands on him, he also senses your complete love for him. We are truly blessed to have you in our lives.
Anyway, hope everyone has had a relaxing weekend so far and enjoy the last bit of it!
Lots of Love

Thanks for the beautiful photos - your little man is looking so much stronger! I love the photo with Caden and Wes.... He seems to be having a conversation with Caden without saying a word - they are talking to each other heart to heart! So happy to hear things are going well... Hope the time starts to fly by and you can bring Caden home soon... God bless and enjoy the rest of your weekend. Much love, Conrad, Megan and Keaton
Dear Wes, Elriza and darling Caden,
What wonderful news that our "little warrior" is doing so well. We praise and thank God for His healing of Caden. As you say, Reezie, prayer sure goes a long way. It is amazing that people we have never met but that have heard through family and friends about the blogspot that find inspiration from the messages that are posted on the blog. Granny Gray has even contacted Radio Tygerberg and their prayer chain is now praying for Caden. He is a very special little man. Grampy says to hurry and get home soon as he wants to at least be able to hold and hug you before he goes to Africa, Caden. Just continue to get stronger day by day and we know that the Lord will keep watch over all three of you.
Lots of love
Gwampy and Gwanny
