Not a Good Day

According to the NICU nurses, Emma is "not having a great day" today. Fluid is accumulating in her lungs and they've had to give her additional medication (which then can affect her kidney functioning). She hasn't been responding well to the ventilations (up from 35 bpm yesterday to 55 bpm today) and is still requiring higher oxygen levels.

this roller coaster ride is not fun

So sorry to hear she's not doing well today, Laurie. As you say - a real rollercoaster. Each time she stays closer to the top, though - soon the good days will far outnumber the bad and she'll be getting ready to come home. Praying that day comes quickly for you.
