June 22, 2012

Today has been a huge milestone McKennlie is out of the PICU. She also had her EVD pulled. She is doing so great! All her vitals are stable and all she has left are her feeding tube, and an IV. She is still working with physical therapists and has learned to say yes with one squeeze and no with two squeezes. Last night Christopher asked if she wanted some brussel sprouts he got two definite squeezes! Lol. We are so proud of our miracle girl.

  7. WOW!!! How amazing miss Mckennlie is doing! These r truly miracles. Today Dakota smiled and giggled twice in response to asking him about the same thing two different times. That is the only kind of yes we get and it is never been as evident as it was today that he understood...it is not consistant but after such a short time McKennlie is miles ahead of Dakota at a year and a half. We couldn't b more thrilled for u. Keep it up girl!! we r constantly thinking and praying for.
