To those affected by a heart defect:

Still moving forward

May 10, 2007 at 6:47 pm by Mom & Dad

Thankfully, there is not much to report today.  Haven is holding steady and doing well with the ventilator and dialysis.  The current plan is to start feeding her again on Saturday once the medication for stomach bleeding has been weaned off.  She was awake a little more today than yesterday, and we got to see her big beautiful eyes. 

As Haven continues to move slowly in the right direction, we are hoping to develop some sort of plan to get her in a more stable condition and hopefully home.  Please pray that we will have patience and persistance in working with all the different doctors and departments that are involved in her care.  We have some wonderful nurses and staff here that are helping us ask the right questions and get the right people together.  We are thankful for their care and for every day we get to spend with Haven Leigh.

    Alison ‘n Jeremy, We will be praying for you as you have so much to process. If Haven can be fed Saturday, we’ll call that her 5mo birthday cake. Alison we wish you a GREAT Mother’s Day! You have been a very special mother with all the highs and lows you’ve gone through with your sweet little gal. Our computer will be in repair for a few days but Laurie will keep us up on your updates. Love ‘n Prayers, Bonnie ‘n Virgil
