Please Pray!!

We got some encouraging but scary news this morning. We could possibly go to surgery to fix the hole in Caroline's diaphragm as early as today. The doctors have been very pleased with her oxygen levels on reduced support of ECMO. They are going to do a trial run, turning the ECMO completely off, to see how she does. If she does well, the surgery will likely happen later today or tomorrow. The surgeon said to the doctors, "If you think she is really doing that well . . ."

She is responding very well to being off the paralytic medicine. It has been awesome to see her respond to our voices and touch. She has been moving around a little bit, is trying to breathe on her own and trying to cry a little bit like any normal baby would!

Please pray that Caroline is strong enough and ready to be taken off ECMO!

Please pray that if she comes off ECMO that the surgeons will know exactly the right time to do the surgery!

Please pray for the surgeons during the surgery!

Please pray that Caroline continues to do so well!
