A Good Day



Look at me! No oxygen!

What great day! Abigail was weaned off all oxygen today, so now we can see her pretty little face. Her bilirubin level was also down a little bit more. This means we are steadily moving in the right direction with her liver function. She still has the tube in her mouth that is draining any extra secretions from her stomach and a drain from her incision site. Once these two things are removed they will start feeding her very slowly. Until that happens she will still be getting all her nutrients from the TPN and lipids that are going through her IV.

A Visit from proud Grandparents!

Another exciting thing is that she can now wear clothes and mommy got to hold her!

Thank the Lord for more good news!
