thisnewdayThe very best part of a very busy day yesterday was the hour spent in the NIC-U watching the little twins sleep and smile and stir just slightly as they slept on pillows in their mom's lap, both now free of the IVs that kept them tethered to the machinery of a new and still somewhat tenuous life.
And, while each must return to her respective Isolette - what another generation called an incubator - Amelia is also freed from the necessity of those ultraviolet lights used to treat the effects of an immature liver. Which means that, depending on her ability to maintain body temperature on her own, she may soon be free of the Isolette as well.
In the meantime, they are both eating and digesting well and have shown remarkable talent at being very cute. And both mom and dad are attentive to their needs and anxious to have them home.
