Graduation Day!!!


Today was a big day for Lia. She graduated out of the CVICU and up to the 8th floor. We were sad to leave the staff in the ICU. I can't say enough about the nurses, doctors, nurse practitioners, respiratory therapists, and techs on that floor. They have been incredible to us as a family. We will miss them.

Our new room is much bigger with a real bed for us to sleep in. They will be watching her vitals, heart rhythm, and eating patterns to make sure they all look good before they let us go home. Lia did a little better today with her bottles. I think "slowly but surely" is her motto. Corey and I left the hospital for the evening to spend some time with the boys. Aunt Jen and Mim have it covered there with Lia.

Thank you again for the constant prayers and support you all have given on our behalf. We continue to feel so blessed. Please pray for the other kids and parents up there in the CVICU as well. There are so many families who don't have the resources and support that we have been so blessed with. We love you all....
