Whopper Jr.

Morgan had a much better day today.  She seems to like the medicine that provides her a burst of caffeine.  This allows her to breathe much more comfortably as it opens up bronchial tubes.  She seemed very content during our after-dinner visit.

She continues to take her feedings from a bottle.  We are so thankful for this progress, especially.  Further, there are swirling conversations of our little girl coming home.  We are not sure how close we are, actually, but the the simple idea of having her home is quickly becoming a reality.  We are absolutely beaming at the prospect and everyday is one day closer.

There is not much more to report at this time.  She continues to gain weight and strength.  She is turning into a little whopper.  Today's weight was 4 lbs, 13 oz.!  Yep!  Three measly little ounces away from five pounds!  We could not be more proud.

Thank you all for your continued prayers for Morgan and her wonderful nurses that scratch and claw to be assigned to her room.  We are also thankful for the wise and thorough doctors that are calling the shots. 

Much love,

Seth and Elizabeth McCoin
