So when I started writing this post, it was quiet at our house after a hectic day filled with running around to Audra's cardiologist appointment, tons of work meetings and a parenting group meeting. Now I write with the "gentle" purr of our generator running in the background because we lost power a few hours ago. It wouldn't be much of an issue if we didn't have about three months of milk stored in our deep freezer. Luckily my husband lives by the motto "be prepared" and he was ready to spring into action. We are expected to have power back in the morning. But for now we are running with our high capacity generator. What a great husband and dad :)
On to the rest of the post... We are getting to our new normal and finding our routine now that I am back to work. So far, so good with plenty of bumps :)
We had our first post Hemi visit with Audra's cardiologist. She said that Audra looked "great" cardiovascularly and has gained a nice amount of weight even though we are low on the calorie side for her milk. The doc expects Audra's oxygen saturation levels to continue to increase a bit more and is still concerned (as are we) with Audra's feeds. We are going to go back to the GI soon and get back to our feeding therapy. We may also see an ENT because her voice seems a bit raspy. We will keep our ears tuned into that to see if we need to schedule that appointment. Never a dull moment.
UPDATE: I never updated to say that power did come back on after 47 hours! Thank goodness for the generator!
