June 2, 2007 - Day 18

The last few days have been quiet. The girls are doing quite well. Over the past few days they have had several tests and all have turned out well. They had EEG's to measure brain activity and look for seizures. This was the one I was a little worried about - especially with Natalie - but they looked perfect. Follow-up EKG's (electrocardiograms) on their hearts showed that Natalie PDA had closed again and Abigail's was still closed. The only results that are a little off are the belly X-rays. Their belly's do not show infection, but they aren't quite normal either. It's nothing really to worry about though. The one wrinkle today has been that they both have dropped their blood pressures a little and are back on minimal doses of dopamine. All in all, they are doing fine and this weekend is far superior than last weekend.

Natalie and Abigail were quite pleased to see their Poppy and Nanny again this weekend. Next weekend will also be full of visitors. We are expecting Nana and Mema, Aunt Loren, Nanny, and Poppy, Aunt Kimmy, special Aunt Jessica, cousin Mary Beth and maybe even Grandpa and Grandma. We can't wait!!
