Update

Addison is holding steady on ECMO. The plan right now is begin to wean her off EMCO tomorrow and see how she does. If all goes well, they are going to schedule the repair surgery for Friday. Addison is actually opening her eyes some. She has the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen.

Yesterday, Liz and Kristi came to see us. It was nice to see them both. They brought Addison some adorable gifts. She absolutely loved them and cannot wait to wear them all. We are so lucky to have such a great support from our CDH friends.

I'm keeping Addison in my thoughts and prayers. My son was born with LCDH and was also on ECMO. He went to surgery while still on ECMO. He's a happy and healthy 18 month old now!
I hope Addison rests up while on ECMO and gains strength for her big surgery.
