Jonathan
and mom got Lydia off to her speech and physical therapy appointments
today and after a shower (yay) I headed up to see Penelope. I got here
just in time for rounds which was exceptionally educational because they
were quizzing the residents about the details of pulmonary
hypertension, acidosis, alkalosis, and bicarb. She's having an echo,
cardiology consult, pulmonology consult etc today. They are going to
start feeds again rather than just iv fluids which makes me happy.
Mamas don't like it when their kids don't get fed. They have also
started to inch (or should I say centimeter) her vent settings down and
she is handling that pretty well. She is nowhere close to coming off of
it but every centimeter counts!
Now
for an update on our other little buddies. It looks like Lynnlee will
be going home on wednesday! We're so proud of her! Also Ellie Rose is
having some minor issues and is coming in to Lebonheur for an echo today
too. Isn't that cute? Ellie and Penny are already doing things
together. Please pray for definitive an positive results for Ellie's
echo too.
Specific prayer
-definitive results from the echo
-healing for penny's lungs
-smooth sailing for Lynnlee
-definitive and positive results for Ellie
