Our girl is doing well, she’s had three days in a row in which she gained 20 grams. She's up to 850! Her hematocrit (red blood cell count) looks “robust,” which might be the single best word I’ve ever heard from a medical professional. The docs have increased her calories and her CPAP pressure to give her the chance to burn fewer calories and it seems to be working. Other than that, no changes. Praise God! Pray this gain streak continues and that her intestines stay safe as we increase her calories.
Erica managed to catch Mercy working on her ballet choreography:
No doubt her aunt Heidi, Mercy's namesake, is cheering her on right now!
We’re praying with you, so thank you for continuing to share how Mercy is doing. She is so so precious. What a tough journey for you, Dave, and for Erica.
