Not looking good for next year though. Alot of the lights are LED and LED lights rust. Looking like we are going to have to find a way to raise $7000.00 for next years show in order for it to take place. Bumber. :-(

Last night was a alright night. She tried to stand up in her crib and mommy couldn’t get to her fast enough and she ended up bumping her head on the side rails on the metal crib she was in. She now has a plastic crib! (by request from mommy) The nurse came in this morning and took off her leads, her o2 stat monitor, the bandage from her drainage tube, and the bandage from her femoral artery that was taken out yesterday!!! SO that means…. SHES WIRELESS!!!!! She is still on a tiny bit of oxygen that will hopefully be gone this afternoon and she has her PICC line in, but that is not connected to anything. Its just there if they need it. Jo, the child life specialist brought in a fun play pad to put all her toys in so she can play around. Gina, our nurse practitioner came in and said she looks great and Addy is not technically an PICU patient anymore, although she is still in the same room. We have to keep working on her chest PT, feeding her and getting her o2 right and if everything goes well with that we may get out of here over the weekend or monday. All together shes doing great. Keep up the great work babygirl. We will be home before you know it. We love you!!!

Addy’s lungs did not look like they hoped. So they are treating it as if it where pneumonia. They have given her antibiotics so we are just waiting
for her lungs to clear outt. It could be a couple of days. She also
got mad last night and took the IV out of her foot, herself, but
they have decided to not put it back in.

Lets Keep this littler girl in our prayers and my God help her return home safe and healthy soon.

Baby Addy

This little girl is stronger than most adults.

Addy is doing very well. She looked to make sure mommy was in the room with her all last night and rested peacefully.

My butt is not fond of the car seating anymore. It was such a long day of driving and everything else i feel i’m in a dream state. Addy was doing pretty good today. Cant stand to see her with all those tubes in her. Drives me nuts. but hopefully she will be home soon.
