Baby Lorin was put into NICU last night. She wasn't breathing well, and her oxygen levels were too low. She had a CAT scan today, and the results showed 2 blood spots in her head. One of the areas with the blood, is the area that controls the breathing. She will have a MRI tomorrow which should give more information. The results from the MRI could take a couple of days. The little mask around her head is to protect her eyes from the bright light. She was becoming jaundiced so they put her under the light. She is getting 40% oxygen and they are trying to wean her off to 21%...not really sure what all that means, it is just what Melinda told me. Lorin will be in the hospital for at least 10 days. Melinda should be released on Tuesday or Wednesday.She is just as precious as can be... I was able to go into the NICU with Melinda to see her. She was sleeping peacefully on her tummy with her legs curled up like a frog...just too cute!!
Please keep Lorin (and Melinda & Todd) in your prayers!

I'm so excited that you have a girl!!! I can't wait to see you putting her in bows, ruffles, and lots of pink... you're going to love it. We are all praying for Lorin, you, Todd, and Jax. Love ya, Meagan D.
I am so very excited that you had a girl. I told mom and the first thing she said was oh she gets to wear the little pink dress after all. I think we need to do some exchanging of clothes for some pink and purple :) We will keep you all in our prayers.
