Last night..



This is Eva last night, doing well breathing on her own. At the moment she is taking doses of Ibuprofen to close a valve in her heart that needs to be closed. This is normal in most babies at this stage. Full term babies are born with the same thing, but it usually closes within a couple hours of being born. The first cycle lasts 3 days and usually works. If not another cycle is administered. If this does not work they may need to do it surgically....please pray for this.

What a precious little gift, how perfect she is. She looks REALLY good. She certainly has a strong will and so many people praying for her.

We're praying! God must have a special place in his heart for Italian hospitals, that's all I can say...
