Good signs




Yesterday and today we have been seeing a large increase in the amount of milk that Maddy is taking by mouth. she has gone from just 3-15cc the 1st few days to now taking 40-55cc almost every feeding! This is awesome and as soon as we can see 65cc every feeding for 2 days she can then come home, so while we are still a few days away we are defiantly getting closer. It is a hard because we have many different nurses, Doctors & physical therapists who all seem to think they have the right answers and we have no answers. So today we chose to go with what we feel is the best for Madison. I guess it is just one of the challenges we will learn to deal with. So Maddy is great, Kennedy is happy to be with us every night and morning and mom & dad are tired. Thanks again for all those who have been there for us.

  6. I was shocked to hear the news, but you have to be happy that it is not worse. I am glad that your insurance is able to cover that much, and I hope that all goes well in the near future. If you ever need a babysitter for Kennedy, so you can get some sleep or anything PLEASE, PLEASE, let me know, and I will drop everything to help. I miss you guys, and will talk later.

    LOVE ALWAYS your favorite 2nd Cousin
