Welcome to Loki's Blog

Dear friends, family, colleagues, etc.,

Here, we will keep you all updated as to the progress of tiny Loki Sky. The emails have their limitations. To retain some degree of privacy, I'll refer to me and my wife as Dad and Mom. Feel free to comment on each post. To stay updated, you can check this website, you can subscribe via email or RSS at the right.

To start things off, I will publish edited versions of the recent emails that I have sent out.

As always, thanks for your support.

About Loki Sky

Loki Sky is a special little man. He was a very early micropreemie, weighing only 610 grams (1 lb, 5 oz) after 24 weeks, 3 days gestation, born to an American Father and a Dutch Mother in Berkeley, California on October 18, 2008.

On January 11, 2009, while still in the hospital NICU, his one kidney stopped working. It was repaired after three surgeries. After spending time in three hospitals in three cities, Loki came home on February 17. He struggled with eating, and then stopped in July, leading to 8 days in the hospital, a failure-to-thrive diagnosis, and a NG feeding tube. On October 10, a minor surgery installed a G feeding tube. Another procedure replaced it with a new one, and then again with a Mic-Key button in Jan. 2010.

In August 2010, he and his parents moved to the Netherlands.
