Morgan day has been very happy and playful today. She has swung in her swing, sat up in her
bumbo seat, reclined in her boppy, and watched her mobile. She also relaxed as the physical therapist gave her a massage.
Her hands are quite animated. She has been holding on to various items. They are also very sneaky… she uses her hands to pretend she is rubbing her eyes, yet she is actually pulling the cannula out of her nose.
Morgan big brown eyes gaze around and look at you when you talk to her. I could melt in them. Not to mention the very long eyelashes that invite you in. Here eyelashes are stunning.
Morgan hair is changing colors. When she was born, it was dark brown, almost black in color. The pigment has been changing and it is turning more blond. Her hair is curly, wonder where that is from? It continues to thicken, too.
Overall, Morgan’s oxygen dependency continues to hold steady. When she is playful, she requires a little more. When she is asleep, her dependency can decrease. This is very normal. At this time, her levels are good, especially since she was just on the C-PAP last week. We would like for her overall dependency to go down, because we know, ultimately, she cannot come home until it does. Seth and I will try to be patient. Please continue to pray for overall healing of her lungs.
As Seth and I continue to navigate these waters, please keep us in your prayers. The journey has been very long, but we wouldn’t do it any other way. He, also, is in the thick of tax-season. We are in no way complaining, merely stating we are exhausted and weary. We want to spend our days with our Morgan, but we also have work and home responsibilities. It is a balance, which we sometimes do well and other times not so well. We know the Good Lord is healing Morgan and sustaining us. Our little daughter is a miracle! We love her so much!
In your prayers, please pray for Morgan’s lungs and against infections. Please also pray for her as she continues to gain her strength back. She is ready to play! Also, please continue to pray for her doctors and nurses. They have a gift and love Morgan so much. I think the entire unit visits Morgan over the course of day. She has a big, big, big fan club at the hospital!
Love,
Elizabeth and Seth McCoin
