Introduction

Our sons Charles George Fitzpatrick and Henry Michael Fitzpatrick were born prematurely on November 16, 2013 at a gestational age of 24 weeks and 1 day. Their "due date" was March 7th, 2014. We started this site on November 28th.

Both Aly and David will be posting to the site. While you will probably be able to tell who is writing by our writing styles, we will sign off on our entries with our initials so you will be sure of the author.

Parainfluenza Type 3

They worked out what Henry has. Parainfluenza virus. We have no idea how. Honestly, if I wasn't also Charlie's dad, I would be suspecting the baby that left then came back. Thankfully, Charlie is showing no symptoms. 

There is no treatment for Henry so we have to wait and hope he can fight it off. To make sure that he is getting the best lung support he can get, they have put poor Henry back on a ventilator.
