Still at CHOP

The twins are still at CHOP, but on the mend. They are in good spirits, smiling, eating, tooting, peeing, and pooping. Their lungs are still congested but are comfortable with oxygen help. The goal is to wean them off the oxygen little by little. Once they spend one night oxygen-free, they can come home. The staff at CHOP is absolutely amazing. Its comforting knowing they are in the best children's hospital in the country. Everything is taken care of for the parents, including room service meals, only $5 for any meal on the menu!

I found out that we were lucky to have them in the same room because their unit is full. I cannot imagine how stressful it would be to run back and forth between rooms! Whew!

I stayed the last two nights and Daniel is going to stay with them tonight so I can spend some time with Hazel, whom I have not seen since Wednesday. My mom (Nana) has given me breaks and spent time during the day with them. When I left this morning, she was giving them baths. Squeaky clean babes.

Cross your fingers we will all be back home in the next couple days.
