Up 35 grams

Mikaila gained 35 grams yesterday bringing her to 1910 grams or 4 lbs 3 1/2 ounces. Nurse Amy, who has just returned from a long respite, indicated a room air trial was in the works. Mikaila's canula will come out during the day and will go back in during her feeds. Please send her good energy. This really is her last true hurdle as she has been stellar with the bottle. In fact, she has taken her last 8 feeds by bottle. Amy may also take her feeding tube out today.

Our Littlest Hero is going to climb this last mountain with the extra dose of courage God gave her fueling her heart. Mikaila will I'm sure, have an extra helping of His Love filling her lungs ... the promise of freedom lighting up her eyes...
AND a big dimpled smile upon her face!
God Love You, my Darling,
Grandma Too
