Today at 13.15 SA time, Casper was delivered :)
And from now on he will be called Carl Michael Andersson :)
He weighed 1.6 kilos, and he is breathing by himself, but he is staying in an incubator in the paediatric ICU. He is doing well and the paediatrician is optimistic.
Since they weren't sure about the pressure in Helens brain, they decided not to give her an epidural and instead she had a general anaestethic. She has now woken up and she is very sore, but very happy :)
On Friday they will scan Helen, and based on the result of that they will probably operate on her on Saturday to remove the brain tumours.

Here he is :)
He is wearing a nappy for premature babies, and it is still much too big :)
And to prepare for all this, I shaved my "baby-beard" this morning :)

Dear Dan, Helen and Carl Michael.
YOU ARE ALL IN OUR HEARTS !
You are so far away from us but still so close.
Love from us: Kalle and IA at Tallbacka in Sweden.
Alles Liebe zum Familien-Nachwuchs! Ich wünsche Euch Glück und Gesundheit mit viel Freude. Euer Philipp aus Hamburg
Dear relatives, dear friends. We were at Mikaels and Annikas place with Dan,s mother Cristina when she got the painful phone call about little Carl.
We thought every day about Carl and his parents. We also thought that all arrows at last pointed in the right direction. We had all hoped so much but it was all in vain.
Nobody can understand your sorrow and pain. We are so sorry for you and we feel so helpless. But we want you to know that you are surrounded by friends. We are here for you.
Stick together hard. Many, many hugs to you both from us in Sweden.
Karl and Ia at Tallbacka Sweden.
