March 5

Karen slept well last night and was able to rest up even more today.  With some appointments scheduled for tonight she wasn't able to see Rebecca but I hurried over with Karen's dad to get in a quick visit.

Karen's first physical therapy appointment is set for tomorrow.  The swelling in her feet and legs is going down.  For awhile today we could see ankle bones.

Rebecca is still doing well though they did put her on a bit of supplemental oxygen. The doctors and nurses had warned us from the start about the possibility and, in fact, said it was likely to happen. Her lungs and muscles are still developing so she is just getting a little tired. She is gaining weight on the fortified human pasteurized milk. It has some added calcium and I think magnesium and potassium for bone development.

Sleep is complete bliss.
