Abby Grace Update!

Just spoke with Bobby and got some news on Abby Grace. She weighed 4lbs 4 ozs and was 18 1/2 long at birth. She has been moved to the NICU at Baptist East. She was/is having trouble maintaining her blood sugar. It continues to drop. She has an IV and is receiving platelets because that count too is low. The Dr.'s would like for her level to be in the 50's and hers has dropped to 29 (was in the 30's). She is also on antibiotics in case there is an infection that is causing the platelet level to drop. The Dr.'s can not find an infection, but are treating as if there is one.They have told Tonya and Bobby that she will be in the NICU for at least 7 days.

Bobby expressed that they are tired and confused. The Dr.'s don't have a lot they can tell them. He said they are just shaking their heads saying we don't know. I can't imagine how scared they must be. When asked if there is anything we can do, he said "Just PRAY!"

Please, please remember baby Abby Grace, Tonya, Bobby and Drew. Remember the physician's when you pray but know the Great Physician is already healing her body according to His will. Please pray for answers and comfort.
