Good News Tonight

Mei-Ling is ready to be sent to the transition unit but its full. Her sucking ability is still not good but they said tonight its just due to two things, a diabetic mother and being a preemie. Diabetic mothers often have babies lacking in sucking ability. They expect her to just one day soon to caught up and just be great at this bottle feeding.Her respirations are much better and its only the lack of ability to nurse that is keeping her in the hospital.Emery and I went to see her tonight and I got to feed her a bottle which she took about half of. Emery held her and this tiny one looked very small in her grandpa's arms.Melanie had to have her incision packed today so she was too sore to make the trip into the hospital.
Pray that she heals fast and that there are not too many days of this packing the incision....Its done twice a day and it hurts !
Its all good news for the progress on Mei-Ling.Today I had such good feelings, so many amazing wonderful things happened, so I just knew there was going to be good news tonight at the hospital and there was.
Now we will just keep praying she learn to drink with vigor.
Thanks everyone for praying as its really working.
