Sunday Update

Well, I went to go and see the girls tonight and check on Cameron's lungs. She was still on cpap and so far has not had to be intubated. Cameron did lose weight last night and has dropped to 875 grams (not sure how much that is in grams). So, they have decided to begin to add supplements to her milk. They added their first packet of HMF (human milk factor) to her milk. Her blood cultures are still running negative but they also ran some new ones last night after the lung collapse to be sure. Hopefully they will continue to run negative. I still do not know how long it will take for the lungs to heal. I am hoping that more information will follow as the days go by.

Reagan has had a very good day and she is 903 grams now (only 4 grams short of 2 lbs!) and they have increased her total milk again. Tonight when I saw her and she looked so content like she was laying back in a recliner just relaxing!

Tonight one of Cameron's primaries will be with the girls and so I am hoping to be able to ask more information from her. But for now, I am thankful that Cameron has seemed to have held her own and pray that her body would heal so that she can get back up to her normal strength and continue to do wel. I also pray that her belly would handle the HMF in her milk well so that we will not have any setbacks in that area! I am also thankful that Reagan is doing so well and seems to be gaining weight right now.

  1. I had to check to see if there was an update before I go to bed, and I am thankful that you were able to post one. I thank God that Cameron seems to be doing good as far as infection goes. I was glad to read that. Thanks for posting tonight! I will continue to pray for Cameron's lungs to heal and that she will be able to handle the HMF and gain weight. I also pray for Reagan that she will gain those 4 grams tonight...I can't wait to see 2lbs, and stay healthy!!! I am praying hard for you, Seth, and your girls, all of them. I hope that Aubrey is doing better too and continues to stay healthy as well as you and Seth. Take care you two! Love you both!
