First off, "eventful" is not something we want to hear about Gwen. Yesterday morning, she'd started to decline pretty rapidly on the ECMO. She jumped back up to 100% and wasn't responding to treatment, so they brought in a cardio scan to see what was wrong with her heart. It appears the the cannulates in her carotid artery could have been put in a better place. Once this was done, Gwen imediantly started to improve. She jumped down from 100% to 70% by the time I had been able to get to her. I was able to get one of those teddy bears that have the heart beat soundbox, which she loves. I don't know which she loves more, her heart beat soundbox or my voice. If my sweet little girl keeps improving at the rate she is, I'll have my baby home soon.
