3rd Brain Ultrasound

Lily had her 3rd brain ultrasound today. It turned out well. The doctor said the blood clot in her ventricle had gotten a tiny bit smaller again. This was good news. I guess it will take months for her body to entirely clean up the blood clot. It was good news that there was no new bleeding and that the blood clot hasn't blocked the ventricle passageways that allow her spinal fluid to flow. Everything looked stable.

Other news... Lily is off of her IV. She is getting 18 ml of milk today. She is back on her CPAP mask for breathing. They took her off of the high flow because she was having a hard time with it. They will probably go back to the high flow in a couple of days. And she's 1 lb. 15 oz today! Yeah... 2 lbs here we come!

That's all I got for tonight - it's late - and I'm wiped out. Love to everyone. Thanks for all the prayers and emails and comments we've been getting. We are encouraged by them and so appreciate the personal notes.
