NICU Day #7 of 127
Today I am a week old! 1 pound and 10 ounces. It’s still pretty scary around here. The doctors have so many tests for me every day. They’ve told mommy and daddy that I’m about 70% viable – whatever that means. Mommy cries and daddy comforts her.
The three holes in my heart will hopefully close in time, but if not, I will have to have heart surgery. I have an extra rib and an odd vertebrae. They are checking to see if I have chromosome and kidney abnormalities. The results won’t be here for weeks. Next I will have brain and heart ultrasounds. Mommy and daddy pray that the tests will be normal. Daddy laughs, “normal is so underrated!”
