4/1 Good Update

We just heard back from the hospital regarding the surgeon's report and they don't see any issues with Madeleine's intestines. Right now, the plan is to give her the rest of the day to let her intestines clear out (stuff is still coming out.) Additionally, the doctor would prefer to give her another day as her intestines still show some dilations (the intestines look lumpy) and the hope is that an extra day will allow them to settle down. The hope is that feeding will start tomorrow. If that occurs, we're hoping that we have a slow, boring few weeks of basic feeding and watching her grow.

That's all for now. Enjoy the rest of the day-- we'll try to post some newer pictures in the next few days.

Hi Brent,

I sent you a facebook message also. Little Madeline is so sweet. My daughter Camilla spent 11 weeks in the NICU and was born at 28 weeks. I know what rollercoaster it is. If you want to chat my email is susana_hill@yahoo.com.

We are doing the walk on the 27th for the 4th year in a row. Is it ok if send your site around here?

Best,

Susana
