Sorry I have not been faithful in keeping up to date on Ms. Peggy's condition. As of yesterday, she had been taken off of the vent and was talking a little. Family is hoping she will be moved out of the ICU by tomorrow. This is all info from Sunday. I have not heard an update from today. I pray all is still going well. This is definitely a miracle from God.

Report on Mackynlee:

Last Sunday, 8 days ago, Mackynlee pulled out her feeding tube. We have not put it back in yet. (Do not report this to any of her doctors!! LOL) She weighed 17lbs and 12 ounces before the tube came out. Her weight has fluctuated up and down this week. She weighed 17lbs and 11ounces yesterday. She is not gaining as quickly as she would if we were tube feeding her, but she is holding her own. That is a major improvement from the last time we took out her tube. The last time, she lost weight quickly and was very fussy. She is still acting like her normal self. I feel as if she is getting satisfied, but still not taking in enough on her own to gain weight. Heart mom that have gone through this::: Any tricks to try to get her to gain weight? I am changing her slowly from 27 cal formula to pediasure. The pediasure has 30 cals per serving. That could help just bit with her weight gain.

Everyone is invited to our house Saturday March 20th. From 3 til 5 we are going to eat and socialize. This special time is to support Rhonda Pittman in love and friendship as she goes through a difficult time in her life battling breast cancer. Hope everyone can attend
