And how many of you knew that Erma is a former Navy Seal? I shit you not, she disguised herself as a man, called herself Sherman. Decorated three times for
bravery in Nam, including the Navy Cross. Mustered out when she hit menopause and lost her "killer instinct".

Here is part one of the latest Stansel blog entry. It an update on the girls:
Today the girls had their follow up eye exam. They get their exams every Tuesday until the doctor is satisfied that they are in the clear. Rachel's eyes are doing good and are progressing as they should. Haley had her's checked by the eye surgeon who did surgery on her last week. He said her right eye is looking good, but he couldn't get a clear look at her left eye since Haley was very fussy and mad and wouldn't stay still. He is going to check her again on Friday. We hope and pray he will be able to get a good look at her left eye and she will be able to be transferred back to Woman's to be with Rachel. If he can't get a good look then Haley will have to be intubated and sedated again. Rachel is still doing well on the nasal cannula. She is growing as well. She is now 4 pounds 15 oz. We are so glad to finally see her gain some weight. As for Haley so far the blood cultures that were done yesterday have come back negative for an infection. We are happy about that. She did good on the cpap today without any apneas or bradycardia's. It seems she just needed to get used to the cpap again after being on the vent againHere is part 2. This is just all her religious and happy/"all is well" talk: We are so eternally grateful for our two precious little daughters. They are so adorable and we can't help but to feel their special spirits. We continue to pray for their safety and health. I know I have felt the tender mercies of an all knowing and wise Heavenly Father through out this whole experience. While there have been difficult and often times I felt I could not bare any more, our Savior has been there to lift me up and push me forward. We love Rachel and Haley so very much, we feel blessed to be called their parents. Thanks be to God for such beautiful and precious children. We know that we will be accountable to Heavenly Father and his Son Jesus Christ for our little girls. We have no greater desire than to raise our girls the way Heavenly Father would have us raise them. I know he will help us along the way because I know we will need all the help we can get. |

I feel so bad for Haley. That baby's belly looks so bloated, as does her face. If the cultures are coming back negative, hopefully the doctors will take
her off that medication soon.

The most recent picture of Haley doesn't look good. Her stomach is so bloated. A baby that weighs 5 lb, 6 oz shouldn't have fat rolls like that. I
would have covered her ostomy bag with a blanket before taking a picture.

Oh, Haley's gonna kick soon, mom. Amanda's instinct is that she has an infection, but she's supposed to have another surgery which will
set her back regardless.

That bag is/was so gross. Is that a huge stain on Amanda's sleeve? Right on her elbow. Did she not notice that?

It isn't a stain. It is the shadow of the end of the bed on her sleeve.

When you click on the picture it looks like a stain. Glad it's not.

This morning Rachel made another big step in her progression - she was moved into an open crib. She was moved to the crib since she was getting too hot in the isolette. She is so little in her new big crib. Rachel also decided to take a step back in her progression. She had to be put back on the CPAP. After we arrived and was about to hold her she dropped her oxygen saturations. She didn't come back up so the doctor ordered to put her back on the CPAP. Rachel won't stay on the CPAP for long she will go back on the nasal cannula, but like the doctor said she just needs to get a bit bigger and stronger. She tried and just like the couple of times she tried the CPAP at first, she finally got it.Moving her to a crib is nice I guess. However, I really don't think that's really a big deal. I think having to move back to CPAP is a much bigger deal. However, Amanda makes it sound like it's the other way around. Does anyone who really knows about these things tell us more about that? I think Rachel has the best prognosis and will go home alot sooner than the Haley. I hope they don't to send her home with an oxygen tank. |
