Subject: Natalia-our little miracle
Hello again,
I just wanted to tell you where we are at now with little
Natalia. We went to the Doctor on Friday and she lost a few more
ounces. So
we are adding more calories to her formula. If she doesn't
fatten up a bit by tomorrow, Monday, we may be putting her into
the hospital to fatten her up so they can put a G-tube into her
stomach. That's not really where I want to go with her feedings,
but if it help give her strength than that's what we need to do.
I am doing my best to get her to drink more at each feeding but
she just stops when she's tired.
I am so touched by so many of you and your thoughtfulness with
calls and e-mails. I will in time get back to you.
Right now I'm trying
to balance everything. ( Right now --Jacob is waiting
patiently for me to make a Lego Helicopter. That should
take some time as pieces
are everywhere. Ha-Ha.)
My parents came over yesterday so I could get some rest.
My fathers brother, who lives in North Fork (Northern
California) had received an e-mail regarding our little Natalia.
How amazing is that!! My Uncle shared our story his
neighbor and here a few weeks later his neighbor has as received
one of my first e-mail prayer requests from a totally different
person. It warms my heart to know there are so many people
sharing and praying. For now, I do believe our prayers are
being answered. She is still with us. She is now
three weeks. I am still praying for miracles and I know God will
answer us withone or many.
Thank you again for your prayers, I will let you know how
our Monday visit goes. God Bless you all, I continue to
thank him for
all of you and your support also.
Love, ThereseAnn, Stephen, and
kids. |
