More photos and an update

Hannah had a great day today. She successfully weaned off of CPAP and is just on a little oxygen with a humidity collar! This is great progress and also confirms to us that she will not come home on a vent. This is great news!

She is doing a great job fighting the infection and is waking up a little and starting to interact a little more. When we got there tonight she was awake and we saw her eyes for the first time. It was very exciting. Adam and I also got to hold her for a long time, as well as suction her ourselves (I know-a weird accomplishment, but it makes us feel good to take care of her ourselves).

    I'm so glad she is doing better! Is that the same little shirt that Ellie wore? I remember her wearing it. Hope tonight's dinner works well for you guys!
