1 week!

They told us she wldnt make it 24 hrs, but 7p today is Bell's 1 week birthday. We are so greatful. Doc gave me the gloom and doom 5% speech this morning. Its strange how hearing something can affect you even though you already know what is being said. Anyway...Bella's doing pretty good. There some some concern that her kidneys are not progressing. The good news is the kidneys are very resiliant. Basically its the best of many problems she could have right now. There is a cardiology consult sheduled for today, as they think the kidneys functio may be a result of the heart shunt, that all babies are born with, not closing off as it should. Head ultrasound came back good and she's have another blood transfusion (I think this makes 4) right now. Keep on prayin!

  2. Chris, Telisha and Dylan- Congratulations on Baby Bella's one week milestone! You, your precious baby angel and the medical staff making the decisions and providing her care remain in my prayers.
    I look forward to your daily updates and know that Bella is receiving not only the very best care available, but even greater, the love, nurturing and tender touch of her mother.
    Thinking of you all,
