At 6:40am we got a horrible wake up call, one of our nurses Judy called and woke us up with a message from Dr.Martin hurry and get to the NICU! Delilah had a very rough night and was having an even rougher morning, when they called they were not sure which way thing's were going to go. At that point she was just holding on. Once we got to the NICU Dr.Martin came out to meet us (which seeing her scared the hell out of me) She explained to us about the bleeding in her lungs the night before and about how aggitated she was all night and in the am, they had gotten her stable and calmed down and also sedated her so she could relax in case she was in pain. Dr.Martin was telling us "well she has to do what I say casue im not ready to let her go" (I love Dr.Martin) once thing's settled down they had to redo Delilahs blood gases and they were GREAT! you couldnt even tell see had anything happen over night!
Dr.Martin had warned us that we could get a call in the middle of the night and she warns there will be more and just try and be ready for them. Which you really cant be ready for the call saying hey your kid might die soon hurry and get here. I do feel very lucky to have the team working with Delilah that we have, all our nurses and dr's really do care about what their doing. Dr.Martin was crying when she saw us, which they had just gotten Delilah stable.
Now Rick and I are exhausted hoping Aria doesnt feel the stress from us, I asked Rick if he could see the color drain from my hair and turn grey instantly lol
Please keep Delilah in your prayers
Praying for your sweet girl & you & Rick. Loved the "smells like rain" story...God is holding your little one while you can't.
