After 6 1/2 Long Months...


Zoe is finally off of oxygen support.  We took her off on Thursday and so far so good.  We are still monitoring her a few times a day and at night to make sure she doesn't need to go back on. We are keeping our fingers crossed.  She seems to love it.  She keeps reaching up to her face to grab her tube, but it's not there!  She's also gaining weight (as you can tell in the picture) and is just over 11 pounds now.  We still have to encourage her to eat a lot.  It's not her favorite thing to do due to the acid reflux, but we are hopeful that that will go away soon.
