Hey Hamas, I've been out of town on vacation and unable to post. But I wanted to let you know that I'm praying for your little girls and your family. What a helpless feeling to be in...but it sounds like things are moving in the right direction and I'm sure you're in the best hands. Blessings to you and your family!!!!

Hope everything continues to improve.
Is this happening at the hospital where your wife works? Whether it's happening there or not, have you noticed that you're getting particularly attentive care from the nursing staff since they (I presume) know that your wife is one of them? In my experience, I've found that having a nurse with relevant knowledge in the family is a huge benefit when a close relative is in the hospital. I hope it's working to your advantage too.

Hope for an update before I leave in the morning. Still praying, still wishing... And I think we all need to plan a tail-gate and celebrate your two beautiful girls... And your wife for that she's endured...

I regret not seeing this earlier and offering some support.
That first picture is particularly affecting. What a tremendous struggle that small bundle of life is facing. God be with her, and her sister, and you and your wife. Take comfort in knowing that you are surrounded by love from people who deeply care. You are not alone. |

It breaks my heart to hear things like this about people's children.
I'm so glad things are looking better. |

Off to Dallas, but thinking about you and your family. Stay strong...

It's a long road, but things have a way of working out.
Good luck to you and your family. I know it's challenging just being there day in and day out. Saturday, I spent 5hrs with my Niece swimming with my kids at our cabin. She was around 1lb when she was born around the same timeframe as yours. |

Just wanted to give you all another update.
Milestone wise, Mom got to hold Logan for the first time today. Logan has moved to an Isolette, which is a really big improvement. She is going to transition from nasal prongs to a nasal canula today, and she's getting small amounts of milk through her feeding tube. Hailey is also improving. She is peeing a lot, which she desperately needed to get the excess amount of fluids out of her body. Last night we changed a diaper that had eight times the pee of her first one, and she's putting out volumes far above what they were optimistically hoping without the need of potentially dangerous diuretics. She just started her first milk feeding. They did another head ultrasound today and noticed no bleeding or evidence of bleeds in either of their brains, which is good news, but not necessarily predictive of long-term clear sailing. Hailey should slowly transition off the oscillator today, and the doctors are slowly weaning her off of morphine, so she's waking up. I got to read a story to her this morning. My wife should be discharged this afternoon, which they say can be quite difficult. Hopefully the transition isn't too tough on her, but she's been tremendous throughout this entire ordeal, so I'm optimistic that she'll be able to handle it.

Wow, just caught this story today. I guess I'm glad I did, given the early uncertainty and the recent good news. We had our son 5 weeks preemie, and my wife was 10 weeks preemie back in the 70's. It's rough, but sounds like you are both able to handle the experience well. Definitely have my thoughts going your way.
