We were transferred to the Denver Children's Hospital on Sunday night because Cassidy developed necrotizing enterocolitis, and with her heart condition, it could cause her to go downhill very quickly. So far she actually seems to be doing really well. She is pink as can be except where she has poor perfusion She is not really growing much but they did start her on lipids and proteins again last night via iv. She is supposed to have a central line put in today, and will be off feeds for 7 days minimum. Good thing I am already quite good friends with my pump! I actually have an incredible milk supply, and I am praying that I can keep it up because I have a feeling I am going to be pumping for a long while.
She had several more echocardiograms, and we have a better idea of just how her heart is configured. So if the need for immediate surgery should arise, we are already here and ready.
Please keep her in your prayers! Thanks!
She just a while ago had a nice spa treatment bath complete with warm towels and blankets, and then a head massage while we attempted to remove lots of tape from her head and two of the three IVs she'd had placed in her head. Her sweet hair was all covered in tape, and her nurse loving spent lots of time carefully removing the tape so that she would not lose all that hair. Thanks Mary Ann!!
In fact, Dr. Monika just came in to evaluate where she is going to place her PICC line, please pray that it goes in easily and quickly! I think it will be a blessing for her to no longer need to be poked and getting multiple IV lines placed into her teeny tiny veins. Pray that the whole procedure goes smoothly and that she tolerates it well. She will also be able to get better nutrition through the PICC. And pray that I will be a good strong mommy for her.
