Scroll to the bottom if you want it in chronological order. a brief overview of the last five days in the life of Jason Taylor Pack. born 7 lbs, 6 oz, 19.5 inches long. born at 7:27 PM on 9/02/10 -he is our beverly hilss baby




Finally, Jason and mom found thier favorite places.

All the Pack Men, happy to be home.

Every time you kiss him, I will kiss him too. Yep, a little game we call "kissy shark"

Me too!! We all want to hold Jason

Home sweet Home!. More than one person is excited for the homecoming of little brother.

Dressed for the road!!

Last day in the hospital, and I think I see a little grin on jason's face. Only a fraction of the smiles on his parents faces.

He liked playing with Grandma

Jason stayed off of CPAP, and continued to make improvements

Ethan and austin had a great time at the park, and were so happy to have mom and dad home. We got to go home, and to cellebrate, we went to a park, and ate macaroni and cheese and chicken from noodles and Co.

Jason was happy to see them too!

Ethan and austin were much more happy to see their brother doing better.

Laura even got to breast feed him (see his milk; strapped onto the edge of the chair)

Very soon Jason was doing well enough to come off of the CPAP, and we were happy!!!

His brothers have been so excited to come and see him, but it broke Ethans little heart to see his baby brother like this.

The medical team didn't want to put him on any positive pressure, due to his initial air leak, and they held out as long as they could, but with the RDS, he kept strugling to breath, and eventually had to be put on CPAP

As his pmeumothoracies resolved, it became more obvious that he was a bit premature, and his lungs showed to have RDS

Pretty soon, he had to go to the NICU, and put on 100% O2. He was doing well, but still strugling. We soon found out that he had bilateral spontaneous pneumothoracies.

Jason was retracting with every breath, and breathing from 80-150 times per minute, but we were happy to see him.
