Two big things now need to happen before Cary and I can hold her and have "Kangaroo Time."
1. First is to give Camden a PICC and remove the 2 lines in her umbilical cord. This will give the nurses and doctors a better, more longterm path to inject medication, electrolytes, and fats. We expect that to happen in the next couple of days.
2. Camden needs to shift off the high frequency ventilator and to a traditional ventilator.
We are still tweaking in the ventilator settings to keep her blood gases where we want them, but overall she is doing very well and showing improvement.
Sorry this is a pretty choppy entry. We are going to get some sleep so our writing can improve.

I'm so glad to hear about Camden's improvements every day. I bet she's as pumped for you to hold her as you are! Thanks so much for the updates, love you both.
