Prodding Along

Morgan had another fantastic day today. Everything seems to be going as planned. She is doing so well.

The UAB staff continues to wean Morgan off of the nitric oxide, which has proven to be such an amazing help to Morgan, along with her surgery. This is great news because it means that precious Morgan is healing. Further, she began to receive full feedings today. Her tummy is accepting her nurishment well, which is obviously crucial to her gaining weight and growing big and strong.

She received a bath today and Elizabeth was able to capture a ten-minute video of our princess on her phone. When she showed it to me, I was in shock. Morgan's face was completely visible. She maintained breathing without the C-PAP the entire time, although it was replaced after all of her moving around. I simply can not stop watching it over and over. She looked so good.

Please pray that she continues this amazing path. We are so grateful for each improvement. Also continue praying for the team at UAB that is helping her heal.

Let's hope that these posts can continue to be short, because that means she will still be doing GREAT!

On a final note, The Raiders won in a double-overtime thriller. Michael made a game-saving tackle, along with a great block to spring the game-winning touchdown, among other great plays. He will play in the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Many thanks to all of you,

Seth and Elizabeth McCoin
