She's perked up amazingly well in a short space of time considering only a few short days ago we were terrified that the worst possible thing might happen - that we might lose her.
She's smiling and grinning and miraculously today cut her first tooth and said MAMA all at once.
We couldn't go home because she's not doing great when she falls asleep - her oxygen levels drop and she ends up having to receive more help from the canned variety. Hopefully she'll do better tonight and we'll be able to go home tomorrow.
They have told us that she'll have to be on oxygen for the plane ride home - this is going to prove incredibly complicated with all the paperwork for the airline. Tomorrow we start to wade through the red tape for that.
We also will have to come back once or twice to see the Pediatricians here before next week.
I've rescheduled the flights for next week.... hope we will be able to make it!
Posted by katie at January 14, 2008 06:26 PMthat is great news that she is getting better, and the tooth and speaking - quite a day.
i have been very worried and must say that i shed more than a couple of tears when i saw the photos.
i am thrilled that you will be allowed to go home soon, and then back to the usa. i hope h & d are ok too and not too scared for their sister. lots of love to you all, s xx
