I am a mom of a cutie pie (very biased). And I wanted to share my experiences with others (including my cuties grandparents, great-grandparents, numerous uncles and other relatives). I love being a mom and can't imagine doing anything else.Day 2 part 2
I was interupted by the pediatric surgery resident coming into the room. They are not always as gentle or personable so I wanted to be there to make sure Alivia wasn't scared.
She is still doing great. So great in fact that they took out her 2 IV's (in her right foot and left hand) there were placed so that she would have access until there were sure the broviac was in the right place. All tests came back that it was in the right place so we can use it now. So both IV's came out. She was so excited. Now we're just waiting for Daddy (James) to get here so she can take off the band-aids (told her she had to wait for him so she would leave them on long enough to make sure they didn't bleed). Next big thing will be food. She hasn't eaten yet and won't be allowed till tomorrow. But she really wants to eat. We are keeping her filled with ice chips and blue slushies (her lips are so blue every nurse or doc asks whats wrong...slushies!)
She hasnt' slept since noon but still is the life of the party. So silly. I'm' overwhelmed by the mercy God is showing us. Thank you Lord. We are so blessed. We're in room 65 on 7 West for those coming to visit.
Please pray tonight for Sean. He is a little boy that was here the last time we were here. He had a transplant and the match wasn't that good so he has had a really rough time. Everything that could go wrong has. He finally got to go home 11 days ago (after over 100 days in) and today he got re-admitted for an infection. Please pray that he will turn the corner and start to get better. Thanks

Praying for Sean, praying for all of you too. Great to hear that things are going smoothly with Livi, and hope it stays that way! All the best for an easy transition to real food. God bless -

tell sean and his parents that everyone here is more than willing to pray... (im sure) thanks for mentioning it!
sweet dreams!
I am so glad everything went well...and that Alivia is in good spirits; children are so inspiring, we can learn a lot from them. We will keep all three of you and Sean in our prayers.

your doctor thinks i'm stalking him a (i ran into him 4 times earlier today and then i just found him again tonight on the stairclimber!) i decided to avoid eye contact this last time, although he was kind enough earlier to lead the way to your secret hiding spot. praying for a good night of rest and giving thanks for the many blessings so far!
key spot for your dad on your voicemail :)
i am so thankful for God's mercies that He is pouring oout on you guys and how evident they are! we continue to pray for quick healing and that food would go smoothly today. love you-jamie
The picture of your and Livi falling asleep holding hands is so sweet in my mind. It must have been such a blessing for you.
Love & Prayers...
