thinking of Little katie and also Lindas granddaughter and hoping for good news.

Get well little girls

Well,our little Katie is still struggling.
They tried her off the ventilator again and on Cpap.she managed for a while but it didnt last.She may be moved to another hospital with a chest specialist.
They are finding it puzzling that she's not responding.
Feel so sorry for grandson and partner trying to cope.
Hope Linda's granddaughter is improving.

A very difficult time for you all Brenda - I do hope things improve soon <3

Poor little baby Katie, and what a worrying time for all the family. Let's hope and pray if baby is moved that she will improve with new treatment.

Ongoing thoughts and prayers for Linda's granddaughter too.

What a terrible time you are all going through Brenda.
Praying things change and Katie is soon sorted out bless her. <3

My thoughts and prayers are with the babies, you, and all your family.

THESE BABIES ARE BORN FIGHTERS,
MY LOVE TO ALL BABIES AND FAMILIES XXXXX

Wondering how little Katie is doing.
Also Lindas granddaughter.

Get well soon little ones

Latest tonight is that Katie is being transferred once again.this time to the big city brand new children's hospital as she needs lots more tests to see why she's not responding to the treatment.

She can't cope without the ventilator and last night she had a sort of fit.
She is taking milk and seems strong enough to keep trying to pull out her tubes.
She is now 17 days old and not classed as a newborn.

We can't stop thinking of her and willing her to improve.
Hope to hear that Linda's granddaughter is getting better.

She is going for an echo heart scan tomorrow as her heart is on the wrong side and a mirror image of what it should be. Her feeding is no different, she still has to be fed totally through the tube. She now has high calorie milk formula which is only on prescription to mix with her mums expressed milk,as they want her to put more weight on.
Her tube came out today so they had to go to the hospital to get a new one put in. while it was out, they tried bottle feeding, but she just screamed. She has such bad acid reflux that she equates feeding with pain

I hope that the specialist children's hospital will be able to help Katie

Thinking of both babies and wishing them well <3

keep fighting Katie,you will be ok soon

my Katie now 23 was always a fighter,shes still the same,your day will come darling,once a fighter,always a fighter.x <3

Continuing to pray for both babies and hope solutions will be swift in coming , thinking also of both families , love and hugs to you Brenda...

love Jean and Jeff xx

I hope both little ones will get stronger each day and their problems will be sorted out soon. It's so hard when you can't take your baby home to be with the family, and have to watch them go through so much treatment and pulling about.

Positive thoughts to both babies and their families
