Update Emily 3/21/09

Emily is doing really good. She is up to 2 lb 8oz. They are weaning her off the ventilator. She has been stable for the last two days, and it is looking like a good night for her. She had another chest x-ray, which is clear. Her blood gas is excellent. All her levels are where they need to be. She is still getting 21 cc of milk every three hours and 24 calories added to every ounce of milk she takes. They won't increase her feedings until she stops gaining weight, then they will increase it again.
