JUST A FEW PICS and TODAY'S UPDATE

In case I haven't mentioned it, Minnie Mouse is Hua Hua's favorite! Lenora, Joseph and Elijah gave her a beautiful new Minnie that twinkles and giggles. She LOVES her! Her she is showing us! (On another note, sitting up without support.) Off many more "lines" of meds.






Getting a good look at Minnie. (Was a welcome gift I had her open yesterday as she was still struggling with ups and downs of emotion as she is coming of of drugs.)





Minnie gets a kiss. Sweet.






Fast forward to today. She is having Minnie get her blood pressure checked and putting an ice pack on Minnie. :) Do you notice something different??? She is off the oxygen canulla!! Weaned off that last night! She was also taken off all IV lines today although she is take MANY oral meds that I will get a weaning chart. She had final ECHO today and her heart is doing great! Her right ventricle has already thinned! She is now going to have her central line removed from her neck.

  2. Annie, it brings me such joy to see little Hua Hua, sitting up and smiling and even kissing Minnie! I know how just a few days ago, it was hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel, even with a strong faith like ours.....but isn't it miraculous how the Lord heals their little bodies and so quickly....(even though it didn't feel that way at the time) Praising him for your sweet Katie Grace's healing. She looks great!

  7. I noticed immediately that Katie had no oxygen canulla. This is wonderful news. I'm so happy that she is doing so well. Any idea how much longer until she can go home? I also see her beautiful polished nails. Wishing Katie Grace continued progress.
