Day 5

All is well
Elizabeth continues to remain stable. They had told us to expect a big backward slide in the first 96 hours, which we are just past. So far so good. The doctor told me this afternoon that she is doing remarkably well, but still has a long way to go and many hurdles to cross. She will have an ultrasound on her heart tomorrow, they are checking to see if a duct has closed (this usually closes at birth on term babies). They will give her a round or two of a medication to help it close, if not she may need to have surgery. Please continue your prayers, we know that there are so many people out there saying prayers for our little Elizabeth, many whom we have never met, thank you!
