Well, Ella had to be placed back on CPAP early this morning.

Her saturations declined and she was having trouble breathing. The aveoli in her lungs were collapsing, making it hard for her to breathe.

This simply means that she is not ready yet and needs more time to gain strength.

Her CPAP is set back to a pressure of 6 and the oxygen support at 50%.

Right now, she is sleeping sound on her belly and her saturations are 100.

We praise God for our baby girl and know that His timing is perfect in all of the details.

On another note of praise, we have looked over at Par and can see that he is not on ECMO. Please keep praying for Ella and her “roommates” as well as Dr. Kays and staff.
