No New News!

Just had a long update from the hospital in Bristol. Lydia has had a settled night and is making good progress. She has lost some more weight, so they are now to start giving her a fortifier in her milk again. She is starting to take her milk well from a bottle, and is getting the hang of continuing to breathe while sucking, which is a good trick and stops her going blue!! The doctors can still feel faint pulses in her right arm and leg, and they feel a bit warmer now, which is encouraging. They have moved the line out of her neck and have moved the heprin drug onto a new line into a vain in her left arm! He left arm went a bit pale and cool with this new line in place, so they are monitoring this as well now! She certainly doesn't like having plastic tubes inserted into her anymore - and I don't blame her either, she's had enough of them! The team in Bristol have arranged for the plastic surgeon to take another look at her "burn marks" on her right arm and ring finger next Tuesday, and they have also booked an ambulance to transfer her back to Cardiff next Wednesday! It looks like things are starting to improve and head in the right direction...again!
