thank you but no she's not doing well
she has 2 things wrong - pleural effusion which is fluid build up between the lung and the chest wall which makes her first breat when born impossible since there is no room for the lungs to expand and Hydrops which is a build up of fluid under the skin which has puffed her up beyond what she should be.
they tried to put in chest tubes last night but couldn't becuase it was too close to her heart and they could have killed her if they nicked her heart
we're taking it one day at a time and gathering all the info we can but sometimes you just need a break - and go figure i go back to watching a trial of a child murderer.
many prayers out to you both....how far along are you?
