I saw her pee!

Abigail was a good girl today. We had a Pee-Pee Princess sighting. I saw her pee a little bit today, so that means she is producing urine. It's not much, but it's in the right direction. She does have diarrhea. So that is something that they are working on - trying to get the right combo of stuff in her feeds. They are slowly weening her off of the ventilator. They test her CO2 levels in her blood to see how she is doing. It would be the first time they have extabated anyone with an open chest. I think that is still 1-2 weeks away.

I'm so happy she's peeing! It's also amazing what they've done with her chest temporarily. Aside from our prayers for the 3 of you, we'll keep all the doctors, nurses and staff at the hospital in our prayers as well. Love you guys lots!
