January 31, 2010

My apologies to the Followers for not posting anything yesterday...even bloggers need a day off to play in the snow :)

After fighting through the snowfall, Mom and Dad were finally able to see their twins yesterday. Will is still doing great just being on the nasal oxygen and I hear there are good pics of his cute little face to post here soon (posted below as of 1pm). Mom got to do a 2 hour holding yesterday since his numbers all looked good after the first hour. He's still eating all 2CCs of his food so it hopefully wont be long until they increase his doses. Next week Will is scheduled for another catscan and EEG.

Tenley had fluid in her lungs again today so she had to have the Lasix powder treatment again to help with the absorption. Her blood counts were also low so she had another blood transfusion. She's still on the assisted breathing machine instead of the osciallator but they keep having to raise her oxygen levels so she may end up going back to the oscillator. The nurses ensure this is pretty standard...Will is just a little over-achiever. She's still eating all 4CCs of food and is off the billi light for now.

  2. Hi Rachel,

    You are such an amazing sister to be doing this! It really helps to get the news straight from the source. It sounds like all is well--little roller coaster rides but if the nurses are unconcerned then the parents usually follow suit. See you at the shower.
