Hello everyone! Today starting off to be much better than last Thursday! The doctors did not make any changes this morning during rounds. Laurie is completing her last day of antibiotics. Her rate and pressures have been weaned quite a bit, however she is still requiring too much oxygen to take her off of the vent at this point. Laurie still weighed 1lb. 13 oz. last night. Natasha, Laurie has a very "fancy" bed--it weighs without having to move her! Don't ask me how this works!?! It will even convert her weight from grams to pounds and ounces, which means no calculating for me!!! Thirty grams equals one ounce, so she may gain a few grams at night without the ounces actually changing.

Please continue to remember Laurie and her doctors and nurses in your prayers. Also, remember Todd and Mother has they travel to and from Birmingham tomorrow.

Love,
Todd, Leah, Cole, and Laurie

What a beautiful picture. Looks like she is looking at us. Would love to hold her and squeeze her. She is beautiful in pink.
Glad this Thursday is a better one than last. Maybe there won't be any more bad ones. Our prayers continue to be with all of you.

What a beautiful little doll! Just look how far she has come! We are so thankful for each ounce gained and each baby step forward. We send up prayers daily for the entire Killingsworth/Crowe family. This is a picture to cherish, along with the one of "big brother" Cole by her bed!
Love to all,
Van & Janice
