One Day and Counting

Grace has made it a full 24
hours off the ventilator. It is so much easier to pick her up and hold her, and that is exactly what Deb and I did today. She snuggles up to her scruffy Dad and her pretty Mom without too much complaint, although she tires easily from breathing hard. She gets breathing treatments every few hours and is still on a lot of oxygen via nasal cannula.





It is amazing how greedy we get. Now that she is off the vent, I want her off the cannula. Patience, patience, never my strong point. Check out the Santa hat in the picture of Grace and Deb and stay tuned for Grace's Christmas outfit tomorrow. Yup, I actually went shopping for preemie Chrismas clothes today. I know, don't ya just wanna puke!?

Wonderful, wonderful news! How exciting for mom and dad...and just imagine Grace's perspective! Hope she likes pink for awhile because she is absolutely stunning in it! A distant admirer. Jenny
