Crazy week




On Wednesday, Ella had a test to try and find out what is making her blood sugar fluxtuate and she had a bad reaction to the medicine that was used. Her oxygen level went way down (so much that we had to keep the oxygen mask over her face), she got fever, and was overall sick. I have to admit to being very scared, I haven't felt this scared since September when Ella first came to the hospital. Our big girl has soo much personality now that she didn't seem herself and that is what made me scared. By 3 o'clock she wanted to eat and when we gave her a small amount of milk, she wasn't satisfied until she got it all. At this point, we knew that she was doing much better.

She was on the oxygen the next day and by today she is breathing on her own again. In fact, our big girl is now in a crib AND taking all her feedings from a bottle.

However, we need your prayers for the sugar issue. All the tests that they have given Ella have all come back normal but she is still having fluxtuating blood sugars. Because of the blood sugar they can't remove the broviac or send us home. I'm believing for a miracle because our little girl needs one...she has come sooo far and will still have to conquer things in her life. Thank you for praying for our girl, that was the thought in my mind on Wednesday, I knew that all of your guys were lifting her up in prayer.

Christy--let the peace of God rule in your heart and mind--the enemy is trying to steal your peace, kill your hope and destroy your faith in God but he is a liar. Peanut is in God's hands--her angels stand guard at her crib(yea) and no evil shall befall her. I have commanded her body to be in perfect chemical balance--the blood of Jesus flows through her arteries and veins and cleanses her of all impurities and any thing that would try to bring imbalance to her body is bound in the name of Jesus. I forbid her body to deceived in any matter--the blood of Jesus covers and protects her always. This too shall pass--be encouraged--stay strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. You guys are on the home stretch--keep running your race--you are almost at the finish line--1st place for my Peanut.HIP HIP HOORAY!!!
Love you,
Gwen
