helaina at the NICU

We went and visited Helaina yesterday at the NICU. She was doing very well. We got to meet with the doctor and she told us good things about what was going on. As everyone knows she is still on a ventilator. The doctor told us this was normal for a premi of her age, and she told us the xrays of her lungs don't show any problems other than being immature. The doctor also told us she doesn't seem to have any problems with any of her other organs at this time. The doctor told us to plan on taking her home around Christmas time, which was our original due date, but of course she could not tell us for sure when we take her home. One of our favorite nurses Amy was tending to her yesterday. Amy put one of the premi hats on her little head that Heather had brought down. She was just too cute. Thanks again for everything everyone has done for use it helps so much.
