Hi all,
today Ella was great. The doctors are still backing down on the medication that keeps her blood pressure high, and she seems to be reacting good to the change. She also has been peeing really well, and she is less swollen. She actually opened her eyes a few times while we were there. She rolls them around and sometimes peeks at you. Daniel read her an article on Stem Cell research and one on Mars. She was moving more than she had all week. Tomorrow the doctors will close her chest up. There are usually some ups and downs with the procedure, but can you blame her?
She loves to have her head rubbed and smiled once while we were talking to her. At one point Daniel was tickling her toes and she jerked her leg away from him. This makes me proud that she is going to be straight forward with her feelings (like mom). It was a really good day for Daniel and I because we got to know more about her personality and help out with her care.
I have been backing off the meds, so hopefully this post is more legible.
Take care and thanks for your comments,
Daniel and Danielle
