-Here is an update on our daughter, If we have had to delay a job or quote or have taken a little longer to get back to you at all these past 2 weeks we are truly sorry! 😔 We are working hard to get caught up and get all of our customers taken care of! Thank you for your patience and understanding! ❤❤❤
******I know everyone has been asking for this, honestly it felt too painful to even try and write our story out. The weekend into this week was super rough Ella came off the ventilator and onto bipap and then from bipap to cpap to room air finally but was also withdrawing from weaning the sedation and was silently aspirating so she had the feeding tube in and they were still running tests up until tuesday. They redid the swallow study yesterday and her airway has healed some and she can take bottles now :) She also got her picc line removed and feeding tube removed yesterday. Now we are still weaning her off sedation meds slowly to help control the withdrawal symptoms and we will need Eye, Neurology, ST/PT/OT and early intervention to try and help her meet her milestones. We do not know how the lack of oxygen is going to affect her the dr said it may be a year or 2 until we realize how she was impacted. We feel so blessed that she is alive and we are not planning a funeral and we will take it step by step on her path to recovery. Thank you all so much for all your messages, prayers and the donations. This has been the hardest 11 days of our lives.******From Sara Collier - Hi, I'd really appreciate it if you would share and donate to my GoFundMe campaign, Ella's Recovery.
