As Charli continues to grow, there are still things to ask God about when we are thinking about her and her family. Here are specific requests from Adam for today:
"Well, Charli is up to 6 pounds 7.6 ounces today. We did get some bad news. The doctor changed his orders. Charli will not be receiving any bottle feeds (looks like it’ll be for 2 weeks). She continues to aspirate (meaning that the milk is going into her lungs, and she’s already got major lung issues). Lord-willing, she’ll mature in the next few weeks and be able to start taking a bottle. One of the conditions she must meet to come home is to be able to take all of her feedings on her own. They’ll do another swallow study before they give her the bottle.
Good news – she passed a hearing test this week (this is the first time!). There will be follow-up tests, but that was a really positive thing. In addition, her eyes looked a little better again.
That’s it for now. Still needing prayer!"
