Hey there,
Just an update. The changing of the doctors might spell good news for us. Finally there's a resident and an attending who both agree that Liberty isn't showing any signs of problems, and that invasiveness doesn't make sense. Thank God!
Our attending told us we might even be able to go home today, although Savannah and I aren't counting on it. We know they probably will keep us until tomorrow, both to monitor Liberty, and to watch her urine and blood cultures to make sure they don't grow bacteria. So far, so good, though -- nothing to speak of.
On the other hand, we're seeing increasing signs that our monitoring equipment is moody. If Liberty kicks, if I'm patting her on the back, if we let the cords hang, or a host of other "IFs," we're told the readings can be off.
So we're hopeful that our caregivers will take that into account before making any additional judgments. We're confident that we'll be home tomorrow, but we're not counting any chickens just yet.
(Side note: London, whose had a cold for a couple of weeks now -- and passed it on to daddy -- threw up for the first time at Grandma Nomi's house this morning. Lots of snot has drained into his poor tummy. We miss him so much, and feel for him!)
Word is there's going to be snow tonight. We're in the upper hills above Portland, so we're looking forward to a great show out of our hospital room window. Our apartment in Sandy could get up to 6 inches tonight!
With Love,
Marcus, Savannah and Liberty
