Hi! We have just finished visiting Laurie and sitting in on the Doctor's rounds. They have decreased her vent and are hoping to have her off in the next couple of days. She will then go on a C-pap. They have told us that 2/3 of premature babies have to go back on the vent, so it will be back and forth trying to find the right balance for Laurie (between the vent and C-pap). They are also going to increase her feeds, possibly later today. Hopefully, by tomorrow they will take the light off of her, if her jaundice numbers continue to decrease.

We are trying to sit in on rounds every morning sometime between 9:00am -12:00 noon and will try to update the blog after lunch each day. Dr. Carlo and Dr. Sims have been wonderful to not only include us in morning rounds, but are great to come over and talk with us about updates when they see us at her bedside.

Thanks for all of your continued prayers and support! God continues to bless us daily!!!

Love to all!
Todd, Leah,Cole and Laurie

I'm glad to hear Laurie is making
such progress! She's like her mom,
getting things done quickly. I hope
you all have a great night. Call when you need to talk. Meanwhile, know we're covering you all in prayer. Love, Nancy
