Harper's improvement continues slowly and steadily. She is visiting
with her big sisters this weekend, and loves all of their attention! We
talked with one of her doctors this morning, and here's her latest
update: They are continuing to increase her milk feeds and will be
taking her off of the TPN today to see how she does. They are weaning
her slowly off the morphine, and when she comes off completely we will
have a therapist come in to start working in bottle feeds. Her latest
c/t scan was good- the right side of her brain/head is improving, and
while the left side still shows some bleeding, it is stable and the
neuros are happy with it. They are continuing to increase the pressure
on her EVD (her external shunt), and in the next two or three days
they'll make a decision about removing it and also try to decide if
she'll need the internal shunt.
That about sums it up... On a non-medical note, we got to see her in a
onesie yesterday! It was exciting for this mama to see her girl with
clothes on for a change. :)
