Staying the Course

Can you still see us beaming?  We are so excited that Morgan has continued to be off the C-PAP and be in her big girl crib!  Thank you so much for sharing in our excitement today! 

Morgan has held her course!  She is doing well, as the doctor had hoped!  The UAB nurses are even sharing the excitement and cheering Morgan on! It has been fun for Seth and me to share this with them, as well as, the nurses/friends from  St. Vincent's!  This little one has captured many of the caregivers' hearts and it is humbling to have them genuinely cheering her on, along side us!

She will continue with physical therapy and begin to receive therapy to help her learn to swallow and eat from a bottle.  These are big steps in her life and giant leap towards her arrival home. 

Please continue to pray for her as she continues in the transition to breathing her own, learns her new habits and her overall growth and development.  The Lord hears us and is healing our daughter!  Pray also for her caregivers. 

As Seth mentioned last night, she loves being held!  She is getting spoiled rotten by her dear nurses.  They are going to have to come home with us to help us rock her constantly! 

Today, there was another first.   Papa (a.k.a. David Hassinger) got to hold Morgan for the first time.  She was swaddled and he rocked her to sleep after she finished her lunch. 

Thanks, again, for caring for our daughter!  She is a blessed little girl! 

Love,

Elizabeth and Seth McCoin
