No news is good news!

I know that it’s been a few days, but things move so slowly I had to wait to have more to report to you.   Adela is starting to feel better and made some good milestones.

Here are the updates:

– She is able to sit up in a chair a couple of times a day.  She is playing with toys and using her baby signs.  She does still seem a little hesitant to talk.

– She received her last doses of Ativan and Methadone this morning.  She hasn’t seemed to have any withdrawal symptoms in the past day or two.

– They have been ramping up her calories in her formula and switched her multivitamin and she seems to be responding well to both.

– She just had her central IV line taken out.  All her numbers are looking better.  Her sodium is still just a little off and they are going to check her levels later in her urine (if they can get a sample).

– They also just finished an ultrasound on her heart to verify that it was functioning better than before and that looks positive.

– Her latest blood test shows continued improvement in the liver as well as her electrolytes which they have been supplementing for a few days.

Here’s hoping everything continues onward and upward.  The doctor today said that we might be home by the end of the week!  Just in time for the Easter Bunny!
