May 7th
Clara has been cruising along just fine. She got another good report from the eye doctor this week. Her ROP continues to improve but she will continue visit the doctor on a weekly basis. Friday she visited Dr. Rowell. She was impressed on how Clara was progressing. Clara weighed 6lbs 6 oz and had a good hemaglobin test but has a case of Fungus Mouth otherwise know as Thrush. We have to swab her mouth with medicine 4 times a day. After talking with the Dr. we are hoping that Clara will be off the O2 by May 16 and then off the heart and breathing monitor by the end of the month. Keep your fingers crossed.
