Today is Abby's 31st day in the NICU. Abby remains on CPAP to help her breath. Yesterday she dropped her heart rate to the 60's and her oxygen to the 40's. Usually she is able to recover on her own, but today they had to bag her ( put a mask over her mouth and nose that delivers 100% oxygen). They did a bunch of lab work and discovered she need to get a blood transfusion.. After receiving the blood, she did not do this again. She now weighs 1 pound and 14 oz. Yesterday, Abby had some visitors. My Aunt Donna and Uncle Scott came up from Midlothian to see her. My Aunt made Chad and I some very tasty chicken and lots of sweets. Very good comfort food, not good for weight loss. My former step sister also made her a hat, that is adorable. I can't wait for everyone to meet her. I go back to work in a week. I will be able to visit her since we are at the same hospital. I've been on bedrest for three months now and I am actually looking forward to working again. It will also help me keep my mind occupied. Happy Valentines Day Abby. Keep praying.
