1 Week & 6 Days

Kandis' surgery went well today. No problems and she seems to react to it well so far. Her vent setting started to lower this evening, so it looks like the surgery is doing it's job. The staff will see how she does tomorrow and then they will look into giving her a feeding tube and an isolate.

Kenedi got her feeding tube today. She is getting 3 ml of milk (at this point colostrum) every 8 hours. This should put a little more meat on her bones. She seems to take the food well. They are waiting for a new isolate to put her in, and as soon as one becomes available, she's going to be moving! Her vent setting keep getting lowered, which is a direct result of the surgery.

Thank you everyone who kept the girls in your prayers for the surgeries. We still have a long road ahead of us, with much more needed prayers, but this was our first big step. We seem to have made it through this step, so we'll move on to the next one. Thanks again everyone who came down to send time with the girls and us, and thanks to those who sent flowers, gifts, food, etc. The thought means more than you may know.
