Jordyn's blog will no longer be updated here. I've moved the site to a new server with new software so that it will be more responsive and reliable. During this move, I've also put her photo gallery directly under her domain. So, from now on, make...

Just a quick little note that there's a new way that you can access this blog...JordynHope.com. By the time that you read this, all of the DNS should have propogated around the internet...if it's not working for you yet, give it another day or so...
Today Jordyn ended up going with her mom and dad and grandfather back to CHOP for a doctor's visit (don't worry, everything's ok).

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've had a lot going on in my life too. But, that's not too interesting from a Jordyn perspective....back to the girl of the hour.
Jordyn finally came home on Thursday. The one day delay was mostly due...
We pride ourselves here at Wolosky.net with our accuracy and humor. Therefore, I feel its necessary to make a correction to an earlier posting of mine. Due to some miscalculations, we incorrectly reported Jordyn's increase in weight. ...
My my. Without all those tubes around her, you really get a chance to see just how cute she really is. Check her out for yourself....
Dana was able to hold Jordyn twice yesterday, and even got to feed her a bottle and change her diaper (no word yet on Dana's reaction to her first diaper change - I'll try to find out for you).
Some more photos (from those marvels of technology -- camera...

It's been a couple days, so I thought that I should fill you all in with the news that I have.
If you haven't been checking out her photo album, you've been missing out. Lewis and Dad have been uploading some new photos every couple days, so...
Jordyn is now in ICU recovering from the surgery. From what I hear, it went well. She now has a shunt in her heart.
Because she's so small, they're going to let her grow for another six months or so before they go in to repair the hole in...
Well, it's happening sooner than originally expected.
Jordyn's operation will be the first one tomorrow morning, around 9:15am EST. Everyone had a consult with the doctors this evening and they stressted that there while this is a serious surgery,...
Leading up to Jordyn's birth, we knew that she was going to have to have heart surgery shortly after being born. What the doctors realized was that some more immediate surgery needed to take place first.
After being born, the doctor's noticed that...
http://cleansupwell.com/photos/v/JordynHopeJordyn decided to come out a wee bit early -- she'd been hanging out for about 37 weeks and I guess decided she was tired of waiting around.
Lewis and Dana rode in an ambulance all the way to Children's in Philadelphia...
Returning home is therapy! Making progress each day helps
out. I should be walking with a cane next week and then nothing
at all, soon after that. I will write more later....
Hello All:
I am home from the rehabilitation center!!!...
Lew's physical therapist says that he walked further today than yesterday. With assistance and the walker, he was able to walk to the sink and wash his hands.
He's also in good spirits, now that he's moving more and eating on his own. He...
They're going to take out the feeding tube because he can now swallow on his own. This is huge because that was the last major remaining concern for everyone.
At this point, it's just a matter of recovery and therapy to strengthen and improve his...
So, here it is. I didn't actually bid that much. Oh no. That's insane. My bid was much more reasonable. No, really.
Well, maybe not.
They were looking at offers on Tuesday, and I figured I'd have no chance in a bidding...
No more catheter -- all the plumbing is working just fine! Very good news. He still has an IV for antibiotics and the feeding tube.
The drain in the head has been gone. His recovery is still slow, but it's definitely progressing. ...
A Barium Swallow test is scheduled for tomorrow. The eyepatch was removed because he was able to open and close his left eye on his own.
Hopefully he should be cleared to eat by himself soon. He's already breathing on his own which is...
Well, Ms. X won't let me spent a lot of money on her birthday present. But -- I know that she wants the iPod Nano to help her train for the New York Marathon (despite my numerous objections for getting an mp3 player that locks her into Apple...)....
