The last two days haven't been the best. Raylee has been dropping in her oxygen. They ran some tests for infections and we are waiting for most of the results. They let the cultures set and grow for 3 to 5 days. They did find a slight bacteria infection in her throat from her breathing tube so they started her on antibiotics already. They have also switched her breathing tube out for a bigger one, she had quite the air leak. Her oxygen levels have already gotten better. She received another blood transfusion last night. Although this sounds like a lot the doctor said these are just minor problems.
Her feedings have been going extremely well. She is up to 18cc just 2cc shy of a full feeding!
Sorry we don't have recent pictures. The lights have been bothering her eyes so we try and leave them off. We will try for some new ones tonight.
Thank you for all of your prayers.
