Moving Forward!!!
Mallory is finally back off of the ventilator!!! After a 3 day setback she is actually past where she was when they took her off of the ventilator before. It is so nice to be able to see her personality (which lets you know when she is not happy)and her awake then sedated while she had the ventilator. She still has a long way before we are in the clear with the ventilator, but this progress has been really good. She also now has all of her tubes that were in her body taken out and finally getting some milk in her belly. Mom and dad are also able to touch her and let her strong grip get a hold of our fingers. The last bit of great news is she took her pacifier again, which is great, as they tend to forget how to do this. Which makes it even longer before they can feed without a tube.

Miranda, I am so glad that things seem to be going well. You and Mallory have been in our thoughts and we hope things keep going well. If there is anything you need, do not hesitate to ask. Your mother-in-law keeps me informed. Mallory is absolutely beautiful! I have heard all about the hats and am not a bit surprised. I know Mallory already knows how much she is loved.

ReplyDeleteI just found this link through Facebook. We were talking about you and your family the other day wondering how Baby Mallory was doing. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts for everyone as you go through this journey.
