Working Hard

Sunday, December 14, 2008
Grace is still breathing on her own today, but is pretty tired. She is sleeping more and the docs think she might need a little assistance. They may consider putting her on CPAP which is a mask that forces air into her lungs without having to intubate her. Not very fun, it would be like having a vacuum cleaner strapped to your head. We will see how she does overnight.
No pictures of the Christmas outfit today. Grace wasn't in the mood. We will try again tomorrow. Wishing you all a great week. Get your Christmas shopping done. Though in this economy, perhaps it is best if we focus on spending time with loved ones rather than spending money. Gifts are quickly forgotten, but memories can last a lifetime. I'm sure somebody said that before, but I don't know who. Probably saw it in a Hallmark card!

We are very glad to hear that Grace is eating and growing very well. We wish all three of you only the best.
You have so many wonderful times ahead of you and we know you will cherish every moment. It was a pleasure meeting both of you and we respected you as parents as you showed so much love for your daughter.
Best wishes to you and especially Grace.

Tim and Deb:
I have been praying for little Grace, she is a blessing and has gained all her strength from the love of you, her parents, and all the prayers. She seems to be quite a tough little one, I am so happy she continues to make progress. I just wanted you to know how much I have been thinking of all of you.

Love and prayers to you all,
