Day 96

Ava's gas was 46 this morning. They took her off the vent and on CPAP again. Praise God! I'm hoping we can make it to cannula and stay off the vent. Ava is still on steroids so that is why she is doing so well. Her gas was 65 after being put on CPAP, which they are happy with. Her O2 is 80%. Hopefully her lungs will be permanently better.

I can't come in today because I have a sore throat, but we are all doing a bit better so I am praying we stay better. I always get sick when Ava is doing better. =(

Ava's neighbor that was born the same day as her (two weeks older) went home today. We are very happy for him and pray for him to have continual success. His mom has been such a wonderful friend to have during this trying time. Hopefully they can celebrate their birthday's together years from now.

Ava weighs 5 lbs. 10oz. - just 2 oz. shy of what Ariana weighed when she was born.

Praying for her lungs to get better and stay better and for my family to get and stay healthy...
