Good morning. I think I am going to take a leap of faith and report a bit of good news. Guess who is over 11lbs now? Yep you read that right. She is 11.3lbs now! HOORAY! Oh and she is now 23inches long. Birth length was 17 1/4inches. So we are definitely making a bit of progress. :) As far as the bleeding goes she took cultures of the specimen that i brought her and yep i was right it is blood. Where we dont know. It sucks but we are trying her on a different med. So we shall see how that goes.
Also K's grandma has NOT had another stroke! YES OH YES! However she does have some kind of infection and was running a fever of 104. Last i checked her temp is back to normal, hb is not erratic, and blood sugar back where it is supposed to be. Ah.. my grandma is going to help me make a trip to margaritaville! :) I called to check on my grandpa and he is doing good also. They have been married for 52+years. I think i have lost track on how many yrs it has been now.
Now for the scary bit. Ms k had a severe sweating episode. It was one of those where she looked like she had been in the sauna for a bit. Temp was fine in the house. Not too many blankets. In fact i was chilly. Hands were clammy. Rapid irratic breathing for 80 secs. Then self corrected. Please tell me why being a heart parent can't be simplistic like her cards said it would be.. They said oh once she has her repair you should be off to the races. Done completed. Unless you are that 1% that just has issues. Well he#@ what percent is kenadie in the 1 freaking %! Anyways.. sorry i had to get that out. I wanted to start my blog this morning with a bit of good news!

Great news on Miss K's weight and length. Glad to hear your Grandma is doing better.
Hoping miss K gets out of that 1% stat very soon!
Glad to have some good news - every small step is a step in the right direction! Hugs to you!
Glad to hear Miss K is better and your grandma didn't have a stroke. YAY for good news! :)
The mr potatoe head glasses are pretty funny. Also, I love the family pic on your profile! Is that from Christmas, or is it more recent?
Glad that your gma didnt have another stroke, but I hope they figure out whats wrong; infections can be devastating for babies and older people.
HOORAY for kenadie getting over 11 lbs! Its great that shes growing and coming along pretty well- even if she tends to scare you with unexplained bleeding and sweating. Poor kid. Do they have any ideas about what caused it, yet?
