Good Morning!
Well on Monday my mommy came and so did my Grandma!!! I was happy to see her again (and mommy too)! She took pictures and mommy said she sent them out to many of you. I have been doing good , they have started to increase how much food I get and are doing it a little at a time.
Yesterday when my mommy was here the nurse practitioner Paula told her the results of my cranial ultrasound done on monday.
And it was GREAT news!!!! The bleeding has completely stopped and there is NO maore swelling! They have actually downgraded my bleed to a grade 2 from a grade 3. That was really good news too! Mommy called this morning and I am 3 lbs 13 oz. Alomost the weight I could go home but I still have a few things I need to work on first. But then when mommy called first thing this morning she found out that I was moved to another pod. Which means I am getting better. I will miss my nurses but I am sure they will come to see me again. Then mommy got more GREAT news! I haven't had any of my heart rate drops or breathing problems in 24 hours! She says it's all up hill from here. Mommy said she finally got to show Stephen and Nichole good pictures of me and they were both so proud of me. Stephen even told Nichole "Come look at Lillianna MY FAVORTIE BABY SISTER!!!!!" Mommy says that was a really big change because he used to say if he got another sister he was going to run away from home and now he is so proud of me he gets excited everytime he hears mommy pass on good news about me. I must be really special to him then! And i will tell you a little secret all my sisters and Stephen are special to me!!! I can't wait to get home. Mommy thinks maybe another 3 to 4 weeks. It's easier to thing in weeks instead of months for her.
Here's the new nurse to mess with me I hope Nikki told her I will fight her when she messes with my arms! And let her know what I like. I Love when they clean my mouth with that thing I suck on it! I can get a sweet taste of something and I get some liquid in my mouth! I also LOVE when they rub my hair , It always calms me down. I hope they stil let mommy bring in the special little washcloths to me because they smell like mommy and I sleep better when they are across my eyes or I am laying on them. But if they did tell them I am sure mommy will! I also like to be on my tummy. And hopefully they will still put my wedges around me like the other nurses did. They sure did know what I like! I am sure the new nurses will find out one way or another.
I will update you later and hopefully mommy can figure out how to put more pictures on here of me for you all to see. If not maybe she can ask that Grandpa man. Grandma said he could help her do it.
Love,
Lillianna a.k.a Lily
