It is Well

Tessa continues to impress the doctors and nurses with her progress. She had another good night last night. She did have one bradycardia during the night where her heart rate and breathing drops below normal but one event does not cause great concern. She has not had any pain medication but remains on caffeine to stimulate her respiratory system. Her physical exam went well this morning with no signs of the suspected heart murmur. She will probably resume her milk feedings after the doctors make their rounds this morning. We look forward to this and pray that she will continue her progress forward.

But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings

That Tessa is a tough little cookie! I was so excited to see this update. Hopefully the milk feedings resume and continue so she can start packing on the ounces!!!

Love

Tessa's continuous strides make me very very happy. Anxious for the day when I can hold her and tell her what a lucky litte girl she is to have two wonderful parents.

Can't wait for the next update.
Keep the news coming.

Love to all,
Bev
