Super Bowl?



                                INR as of this mornings labs

                        IS THERAPEUTIC!!!!

 We had a setback when they changed her diuretics but we are back in business now! Ivy has a little cough but her chest x-ray looked good and she is no longer hooked to ANYTHING! 

 The plan for today, a nice green lunch (INR is actually a little high right now...) A CT scan after nap. Lots of bike rides and stroller rides! Tomorrow and Wednesday should be all about getting us ready for life at home. We are praying for a Thursday discharge, a Friday Cardiologist appointment and a flight out of here after that!
Our team made it to the Super Bowl, and Ivy wants to eat chips at home while watching the SanFrancisco 49ers win!

 WE REALIZE that with Ivy and her complexity, anything could change at any time...... But we never underestimate what WE KNOW CAN BE DONE!!!!! Thanking HIM always

    Haven't been able to post as much due to being swamped but I read and pray everyday for Ivy. I just love her little soul and strength so much. I'm so glad she is therapeutic now. My prayers are for a very looooooooong stretch of normal everything and the focus for Ivy is only to get strong. I pray so hard this is the last hurdle for a long time and Ivy can, for the first time, just enjoy feeling healthy and being a normal little girl. Beth

    Mary, I have been following along for awhile now...... I keep praying for little Miss Ivy and all of you. With God next to you he will provide for this precious and very strong daughter of yours( his too)!! I have not really been blogging at all as it was taking away from my family time. Maybe someday I will return.

    I still remember you winning the precious jumper that Cora made as a give away on my blog for sweet Lexi!! How time flys by.....
    Blessings and lots of hugs!!
