My prayer for now that this bug is under control is that we become stable with the CPAP machine. The goal was to go home with as few alarms as possible and with no oxygen added if possible. Yesterday when awake she did well. It is when she sleeps that her respiratory and her oxygen level decrease more than they want. I have had some of the best nurses, but last night she was just like a momma to Annabel and myself. They had to ultrasound her bladder every 3 hours due to her holding so much urine. So she was insistent that I sleep and she take care of the cathing every 3 hours. She also responded to the alarms and I didn't need to listen to make sure her levels were returning where they wanted them to be. When leaving this morning she mentioned she would be back tonight and should have Annabel as her patient. Thank you, Jesus.

Glad to see how pleased she is to see her teachers! She obviously loves them.
Yes, if Nurse is willing to do all that's wanted in the night, you go and sleep. If Annabel wants you, they'll rouse you; otherwise, look after yourself.
This is great Cathy. And what a sweet and wonderful nurse to give you the time you needed to get some rest. And how great were her teachers and therapists to come and visit her yesterday?!!:) The smiles on her face are priceless!! God is so good Cathy as you know already, but I have to say it anyway. Praying it is all upward from here and that the bug is gone. Love you friend.
Love and Hugs, Laurie
I believe God sends those special angels to us when he knows we need them. You must be spent with all the hopsital sounds noises and stress. Hope you got some much needed rest.
Hugs to Annabel, so glad she is doing better.
You need to check that nurse for angel wings! When you see Annabel surrounded by the people who love her so, you can see Jesus. The love in her face is His! What a beautiful message her life has brought to all of us!
Love, Lisa
I'll second that...Thank You Jesus! I love to see Annabel smiling again and I'm so thankful for that wonderful nurse for you! Looks like she has some VERY special teachers as well! Hope your day goes well and Annabel's CPAP needs will decrease! Praying!
Annabel's sweet smile melts my heart! :-) Seeing these pictures have brightened my day!

Cathy how your heart must soar when you see how throughly loved you precius Annabel is! Beautiful to see!
Of course she has her entire fan club out here in the blogosphere as well!
Your nurse sounds like a gem and she is right that you should rest while you have the opportunity. Praying she will be back tonight and assigned to Annabel again!
