Shhhhhh…. Don’t tell Morgan but the doctor turned her liter flow down today. While her oxygen requirement is still higher than in weeks past, the doctor wanted to try to encourage Morgan. If she is not able to keep her saturation levels high enough, then they will have to turn her liters back up and wait another week before weaning again. So far, she has done well on this new level, so we are prayerful it can continue.
Morgan’s
latest weight is 9 pounds 11 ounces. Our
little chunky monkey continues to grow at an appropriate pace.
She continues to eat from a bottle. I got to feed her again today and she did so well. She ate like a champ and was hungry for more. So, as a little treat, I gave Morgan a few tastes of squash. She loved it! She was grunting for more. Her eyes lit up in delight! She managed to get squash everywhere… on her face, hands, outfit and bed! She didn’t care because she was in hog heaven! To date, Morgan has had peas, sweet potatoes, and squash. She has loved each one.
Please pray for her lung strength as she continues to grow. She is moving in the right direction and we want her to keep on track. She is such a big girl and doing so well! We continue to ask for prayers for her as she continues to learn to eat from a bottle and do so more often. Pray also for her lung healing and growth, as well as, Morgan’s overall development. Remember the nurses and doctors who take care of our little princess.
Thanks for all your support, prayers and love! We appreciate each one of you!
Love,
Elizabeth and Seth McCoin
