This is a new day

Today was all around a good day. Emily had great blood gasses. Her blood pressure is great! They are weaning her off 1 of her blood pressure medication. They are now checking her blood pressure once every 2 hours. Each time they check it and its above 40 they will wean her down from 20 by 1. And tonight she's already at 12!!! This is so great!

Today the doctors talked about how bad her skin is. They said "the worst they have ever seen in preemies". They had burn unit, plastic surgery and dermatologist come look at her today. They put there heads together and said that instead of using aquaphor to use a combination of creams that have antibacterial cream and nystatin (fugal cream). They will put this on her 3 times a day.

Over all she's doing good. She has differently turned the corner today.

Over all I am tired. Caleb is so moody now. He wants pretty much his daddy all the time. :(
