Today in Sophia World
Sophia has been sucessfully taken off the morphine drip and has shown to be very comfortable and content with pain management without extra support. She has also been switched to manual settings on the vent(CPAP). Both IVs are gone. She is up to full feeds. We are giving them slower though because she did have a Lil tummy upset. They have also made arrangements for Sophia to start working with speech and occupational therapy. They even have music therapy coming in to work with her. These specialists are going to be great for Sophia. She needs all the stimulation she can get now. Being in the hospital for nearly two months isn't good for anyone. So this is wonderful proactive, progress. They are going to continue to ween her off the vent. So hopefully in a few days we can ditch a few more hoses and wires. All and all today was a pretty good day for the Lil miss. We rocked and then she puked on me. Then we took a bath and ate and rocked some more( no puke that round). Then we had some wonderful visitors! We did notice the trach was bleeding a little today. They said it was due to rubbing so let's hope that doesn't lead to anything more. So all and all a rather good day. And if I may say so, no more funny business Sophia...mommys heart can't handle it.

I'm so glad that Sophia is making such good progress! It is also encouraging to hear about therapy starting for Sophia...in my "before children" days I was a developmental specialist for First Steps. I even had the honor of working with a very spunky 2-year-old who had CHARGE syndrome. You guys are continually in my prayers.
