Yes.... we really need those prayers this week.

I HATE not being able to bring our sweet girl home. It's killing me to know I have to leave her here.

I have been crying for hours. This is truly the hardest thing I have ever had to do..... but I know that no matter what I am feeling it is nothing compared to what our baby girl has to go through and that breaks my heart even more. She is being such a trooper though. Even though she has an IV and monitors and everything hooked up to her she still slept like a rock. She is awake now and is not even fussing. she's such a good strong girl.

One BIG bonus here is that even though they discovered this because she was having breathing issues .... she has NOT needed to be hooked up to Oxygen. She is breathing fine on her own and her oxygen levels are very good they tell us so the "extra work" she is doing in her breathing is working, which is a good thing.

All I can do right now for my baby girl is stay strong for her.... make sure I eat right and get rest so that I can produce the best milk I can for them to feed her and help her get back to health. but it's amazing how some seemingly "innocent" events in the past few days have put us ahead of the game in getting Hannah better..... an optional blood test that we consented to, a pediatrician that just felt he needed to start a blood culture even though there was no real reason to at the time, being encouraged to stay until Saturday morning (otherwise I would be at home with Hannah and have no idea yet that she was sick) etc etc. I can only thank God and the good people at this hospital for this headstart in helping our baby girl. And Of course I am always silently praying for Hannah and for strength for Brian and I to stay strong and get through this with her.

this is the hardest thing I've ever had to do and we really need all the support and prayers we can get.

Thank you

Nancy: Thank you. Any light you can shed on a situation like this is helpful. you have experience with this kind of thing.... we don't so our imaginations can sometimes get carried away and that's not really a good thing. BTW the first pediatrician called them "stork bites" and said they would fade away. We just keep calling them birthmarks but they aren't really. But yes.... any experience you have to share with us is greatly appreciated.
