Shailee is still doing good and she is stable. She does have an infection right now :( but it is only in her nose and they said as long as it doesn't get into her blood she will be fine with it, she is still on antibiotics as well to help it. She has been moved into her own private room due to the infection and b/c she wasn't getting enough rest with all the noises in the unit, but they said that they are going to keep her in this room until she goes home. They ordered her home vent but it is going to be a month before they can get it b/c they had to special order it for her. She will be having her trach tube changed on Friday sometime as well. She is healing up good from surgery, and she isn't being sedated all of the time now. she is up to 73ml of formula every 3 hours now and she is tolerating her feeds fine. as of right now we are planning to go stay with her for 5 days in July to learn how to care for her so she will be able to come home. other then that there is no new news, i will update again as soon as i know more.
