Thank You Jesus!!!

MRI results are good! They found no problems with her brain at all. No bleeding, no lesions, no pressure! She still has a tiny bit of fluid but they don't think it's causing any problems for her especially since it's not creating any pressure. We will keep monitoring it with weekly head circumference checks. For the past 10 weeks her measurements have been right on track with her growth and we are believing that will continue.

It also showed no separation with her optic nerve and little to no vision loss. They will send the images to their other hospital just to get a second opinion but so far, we know that IF there is a problem, it's not acute.

The entire time I've been at the hospital today she's been sleeping and totally lethargic. She didn't even open her eyes for diaper changes or anything. Yet when the doctor came to talk to me, she opened her eyes as soon as he started speaking and smiled. She kept her eyes open and smiled the entire time we were talking! The minute he got up and left, she fell right asleep again. She must have enjoyed hearing the good news. :laugh:

She's also not back on the CPAP because she has been improving with her breathing on the cannula, even though she hasn't really been awake. The nurses say the dosage of sedative she got could have knocked out a horse (:eek:) so they're happy with her progress. Everyone is amazed that she needed that much to remain still. I wonder who she got that from?

Of course, we're giving her a break from bottle/breast feeding today but we will be back at it tomorrow. The docs want to get her back to where she was 3 days ago so that we can work on weaning her from oxygen support.

All in all...it's been a GREAT day. My God is an awesome God.
