Dr.Martins BFF

I apologize to those of you who have been waiting for me to post my blog's lol I usually wait until the evening of late afternoon, this way rounds are done and everything with Delilah is decided for the day.

When I called the NICU this am to see if she did well through the night our nurse today was very happy with how well she did and how she tolerated everything. I told her Rick would be the one up there to visit today so I could have an Aria day J (I needed this so bad) and also we have to take turns going to visit and staying home when we don’t have a sitter, sadly gas is to expensive for us to make 2 trips a day up there.  While Rick was there he said Delilah did really well, she was kicking and moving her arms but not in an agitated way.

While we were getting dinner ready I got a call from the NICU and I’m telling you I never felt my heart stop until I started getting calls from there. This was a good call though, Dr.Martin was calling to let me know Delilah was her BFF today and was doing amazing today!!!!!!!!!!! They had to do a blood and platelet transfusion yesterday and she handled both really well, her blood gases were going up amazingly well, they were getting ready to change the vent she’s on. The one there switching to is for babies who are not as sick. They did a head ultra sound this morning and had the results back already, which showed a little bleeding on both sides but only in certain views the ultra sound will be repeated in a week just to be safe. But as of right now Dr.Martin is saying it shows no sign of long-term developmental problems or cerebral palsy.

OH and as long as Delilah keeps doing well through the night they will start feeding her tomorrow!

Keep the prayers coming they are working! Yes it’s still a very long road but every good day Delilah has helps improve my faith in god, I really wish there was a different way to test my faith in god then with my kids!
