A rough morning...

So Jade had another rough morning today. She pulled out her pick line so they had to put in another one in her leg.  They got the EEG hooked up and have been monitoring it.  It hasn't shown anything as to why shes been twitching. There thinking about doing a spinal tap to do some tests on her nervous system fluids. They don't want to do that until shes off of the infection stuff that they have her on. Speaking of the infection, cultures came back on that yesterday and they didn't grow anything bad so it may of been a false alarm. They were just continuing the treatment to be on the safe side. 

Jade's PDA in her heart is closed this morning which is great news. Also the Potassium levels have stayed down so she hasn't had to take insulin for a while. Her brain ultrasound also came back all normal again.


Sofira is still quiet, they say maybe one more day and she will be able to go off the Pavulon that is keeping her from moving.

  2. I marvel at the technology that allows the medical field to do the Lord's work in preserving the lives of these very little ones. I am reminded of the scripture that tells us the Lord is still a God of miracles when people have faith.

  3. The hiccups in their health can be expected (though not fun at all), but they'll do fine in the long run. My cousin had a baby at 23 1/2 weeks and they made it through the months of time in the NICU, and she's 6 now... with almost no sign of what she went through as an infant. You guys will be just fine. You're in our prayers.

  4. We have a lot of faith headed our way, and certainly Sofira and Jade are two very big miracles for us.

    Thankyou for your prayers, they are very much appreciated.
