Sunny Sunday
It is a beautiful sunny day outside, it makes you want to go outside till you realise that it is 0 degrees outisde….. farenheit. That is -17 celsius.
So me and Aria are camped out in her room, while Anita and Asher go to church with our friends Carol, Cordell and the rest of the visiting families.
Aria no longer has her breathing tube, no high flow oxygen probes, not even low flow oxygen probes just plain old breathing. She is having a good day too, despite the fact she stayed awake till 3.30am this morning. I guess that is what happens after you sleep for 2.5 days. So far we have read books, watched DVDs, had a wash, eaten some lunch (if licking up tomato sauce counts as lunch) and helped the nurse scan her meds.
She’s been very patient, I’m sure she is super duper keen to get out in her pram for walks but she is showing great restraint in not asking for a walk every 17 seconds. We are waiting to make sure her oxygen levels stay good before we get the ok to go off the ward, I suspect by tomorrow we will be taking the family on grand tours of the hospital with Aria as the tour guide.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by, we do appreciate it. I think we are back to non-dramatic updates, you’ll have to get your daily dose of soap opera somewhere else today.

We love the non-dramatic updates!
The only dramatic news we want is that Aria is getting her gift!
Can’t believe how freezing it is! Does it get super hot there in summer?
Keep cool (boom boom)

I’m thankful that you don’t have a dramatic update, because that means Aria is doing well. I pray that she will continue to do well! I’m sure Aria will love to take everyone on a tour. 🙂

I am glad your little girl is doing better. About the walking what if you get a book and get the pages all taken apart and let her go for a short few steps to the first page and then read that page and then have to walk to get to the next page ect ect. seeing that she loves to read. Might be a way for her to have incentive plus she gets a rest in between as well.
