Day 2

Good news for Day 2! Adalyn and Emma were graduated to CPAP at 5:00 this morning and so far are doing great. Adalyn is on room air but Emma still has 44 percent oxygen because she is having just a little bit harder of a time breathing on her own than Adalyn. We praise God for this and hope the twinners can continue to breathe on their own.

Abi had a rough night last night and continues to have a long recovery. Her Hemoglobin level was a 5.8 so they have given her 3 units of blood.(They think she may have lost more blood during surgery than they first etimated.) She also had a fever last night and put her on antibiotics to help with infection.

Please pray for a safe and fast recovery for Abgail and continued progress for Adalyn and Emma.

God is in control-Dave

  15. We're praising God for more good news about Emma and Adalyn, praying for a quick recovery for you Abi, and strength for you, Dave, as the rock of the family. May you feel God's arms around you, holding you close day by day, minute by minute. Love you all, lifting up many many prayers.

    Psalm 139:13-16
    13 For you created our inmost being; you knit us together in our mother's womb.
    14 We praise you because we are fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, we know that full well.
    15 Our frame was not hidden from you when we were made in the secret place. When we were woven together in the depths of the earth,
    16 your eyes saw our unformed body. All the days ordained for us were written in your book
    before one of them came to be.

From the house of all girls down the street, we will be so very excited to welcome two more into the neighborhood! Congratulations~ We are praying that God will provide strength to the entire Lamar family. God Bless~
