To those affected by a heart defect:

Getting some food…slowly, but surely.

January 20, 2007 at 6:42 pm by Mom & Dad

Haven started receiving milk through her feeding tube today. She’s been getting it very slowly over the past six hours and has kept it all down. We’re thankful for that! She’s having some problems with the drainage tube in her chest, so the doctor is coming down this evening to decide what to do with that. Rumor has it that if Haven does well enough this weekend, she may be moving out of the Intensive Care Unit and in to a less critical unit sometime early next week. That would be wonderful–just one step closer to going home!
