Ready to explode

I am so freaking excited today! I am so beyond blessed and I love every one of you reading this!

When I got to St.Joes today I talked to Delilah’s nurse and was informed she did very well last night, she is on a very low setting on the vent. Dr.Pompati told me they are thinking of taking Delilah off the vent and putting her on a canula in a day or two and hopefully they will start feeding her tomorrow.

Dr.Martin surprised me today by letting me hold Delilah for the first time, I was so shocked we didn’t think this would happen for another month or so. They even let me hold her with the vent still in which shocked me!

I am so happy we’re back at St.Joe   I love all my nurses there and our Dr’s!!!

I still repeat the prayer in past post a few times a day and YES god is listening. I know we still have a long road ahead of us and we can have bad days coming, I am trying to stay positive and believe all the bad is behind us.

This helps put in perspective how small Delilah really is. This is the 1st day I got to hold her, she is 13 days old in this picture and weighing 1lbs 2oz (yes she lost some weight)
