Hey guys. I'm sorry it's been awhile since I last updated everyone, but things have been so crazy, and we are literally so worn out I haven't been motivated to much of anything except get through the next day. Since I last updated everyone Audrey had come home from the hospital and was doing fabulous at home until Monday morning. I think she got a mucous plug deep in her lungs and couldn't clear it. Luckily, she was already at the hospital getting a nutrition consult and Pediatrics saw her immediately. So, she is back as an inpatient in the hospital. She had a rough day on Monday, but is doing great now. She no longer has an oxygen need, but the physicians and us want to make sure she is good to go before we bring her home because we don't want her right back in the hospital. A pulmonologist (lung doctor) consulted with Audrey, and he said that it is not uncommon for premature babies like Audrey to still have remnants of the RSV for weeks even months after the initial exposure. So it is definitely a roller coaster. It's just so hard to process that one day she is doing so great and the next day she is in full respiratory distress because of a crazy virus. We expect her to be in the hospital for at least the next day or two. Our insurance company has approved us to have a RN come to the house at night to monitor Audrey so we can get some sleep. This is really great news because I literally have been going on about 2 hours a sleep a night either because I've had to suction this crud from the RSV out of her lungs or just readjust the pulse oximeter that measures her oxygen saturations. Most of the up and down at night is nerves because we are so worried about her but this is no way to live without going crazy. Anyway, bottom line is that Audrey is getting better and preparing to come home and we have help now. I just need to work out the details with the nursing agency to find a good fix of who we are going to let in our home and care for our daughter. Austin continues to do great. He got his two month shots yesterday and did well with them. He weights 10 lbs and 10 ounces now which is awesome. He is definitely living up to his nickname, Hondo........:)) Macy is doing well also. She has a couple of more basketball games left in the season and we're either going to get her in dance or soccer again. That's all for now and I'll try to keep everyone more up to date as time passes. Please forgive me if I don't call family back, but our time is stretched so thin that when we finally settle at night it's more of a collapse than a settle..........later.
