I watched the little boy Owen come off the Jet ventilator today and go on to the conventional one. My poor little Emily is on the Jet. They don't see her coming off it any time soon. Owen was born at 24 weeks and was a twin. His twin didn't make it, and he's doing good. How ever there was only 1 little Emily and she's doing worse then he.
She's up to 1012grams! :) Her penrose came out all the way today. Her belly looks bigger. And more dusky.
I held her today. She is so STINKY! She's 6 weeks old and hasn't had a bath yet.
Just remember that Owen's parents at one time thought they wouldn't see him come off of it for a long time and it happened today, Emily's day is coming to go off the jet and go on the conventional one. Look at all the accomplishments she has made with her skin, with her blood pressure, with less seizures, and gaining weight and height! It is slow but it is coming!!! That is what you need to focus on.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the bath, it will help you appreciate the ones you can give her in the future. Praying daily for you, Josh, Emily, and Caleb.
