Gesina had a busy day of getting her MRI tests done but no results until tomorrow. She opened her eyes for me and I got to hold her as well. I had a hard day emotionally though. We overheard the nurses during their change over meeting discussing Gesina. I didn't know this but when they transported her to the NICU on the day she was born, they almost lost her. This upset me even though I should be grateful she is here a week later fighting. I guess I just have to wrap my head around what is happening and allow myself to process it all in stages. Tonight, I'm struggling but I'll try to be stronger tomorrow.
Tomorrow is a big day as we learn the results of the MRI tests so keep sending the positive thoughts and prayers. Also, just wanted everyone to know that we do read every comment on facebook, this blog, and texts. They give us great comfort and I apologize that I can't personally respond to each one. Every waking moment for me is spent using the breastpump, driving an hour to the hospital, and visiting Gesina. Any time spent doing anything else is precious time away from being the mom I always wanted to be.
Jackie, you and Gesina are in my thoughts constantly, I wish I could carry this burden for you. Just never give up, hope for the best and know that we will always love her whatever happens. Good positive thoughts coming your way. Love mom
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you all to be strong and I know you all will make it through fine.
ReplyDeletePositive thoughts and prayers are always, always headed your way. Even people I know that you don't are praying for you. Churchs have prayer chains for all of you especially for Gesina. I know you are strong. Your mom is right, no matter what we will all love Gesina with all our heart.
