Happy, Belated, Easter

Monday, April 09, 2012  8:30pm

Morgan hopes everyone had a wonderful Easter Celebration!  She wanted to wish all a Happy, Belated, Easter.  We had a fun afternoon of picutre taking and watching the Masters together!  Here are two pictures of our family from yesterday afternoon!



According to a therapist, Morgan is still the star patient!  She continues to do well with her physical and speech therapies.  Both therapist are extremely pleased with her progress and are hopeful she will continue to improve.  The physical therapist continues to work with Morgan’s stiffness, range of motion, and overall posture.  The speech therapist works with Morgan on taking the bottle and organizing herself so she can eat and breathe during feedings.  Since last Thursday, Morgan has taken a bottle once a day.  She is very eager to eat and often gets mad when you stop to burb her or when the bottle is empty.  If all goes well, they will begin to give her two bottles a day this week! 

Morgan continues to do very well.  Today, she is a little up on the oxygen requirement, but the doctor is not alarmed.  It is likely that she just needs a little more help for the moment and then she can be weaned back down.  The oxygen fluctuations are not uncommon.  It does not change their care plan for Morgan.  It merely means she is a little more help.  As of now, it is not considered a setback.  I mention it so that you can continue to help us pray for her lung development and their healing.  We want her overall oxygen dependency to go down and her lungs to strengthen. 

Seth and I are thankful for your continued prayers, words of encouragement, and overall support for all three of us!  This certainly is not the joureny we had ever dreamed we would be on, but it is made easier by your love and support!  Thank you. 

Love,
Elizabeth and Seth McCoin
