August 11 quick update

Madalyn had good blood sugar levels last night and through this point, and even had a 98 at 5PM yesterday.  She had consistent levels from the mid 50's and higher, which has allowed the NICU staff to begin checking blood sugar levels at every other feeding (every 6 hours), rather than at every feeding like they have been doing.  This is good since Maddy's feet are getting pretty scarred from the continuous blood draws that she is receiving. 

We are optomistic that Maddy is making progress, and are hoping that she will continue to have good levels that will allow her to come home soon.  We are very encouraged by her progress, and are praying that this trend will continue.
