Got to Hold Cate
We had another good day today. Cate was able to stay off the ventilator. They are concerned about her CO2 levels. If they get a litttle higher she will have to be put back on the ventilator. We are hoping this does not happen because it causes lung damage. They tell us if she has to be put back on the ventilator, this is all normal for a baby her size. She had her brain ultrasound today and the dr said everything looked normal. We are excited about that. Because she was doing so well, they let me hold her for over an hour. I will post pictures later. Duke may get to hold her tomorrow. What a good day!

Getting all teared up reading this. I remember being discharged from the hospital and feeling totally lost, too. I'm so happy to read the good news! Good ultrasound AND you got to hold your little girl! Can't wait for pics. She just keeps showing us how strong she is, doesn't she?
I hope that our friends Katie and Tim (Katie left you a comment on a previous post) can give you a lot of hope and inspiration. Their boys, born super early, too, are now doing awesome! It's amazing what their little bodies are able to work through.
Sorry for the rambling. Praying for another good day for Cate! xoxo
Hi Jayne,
Your mom gave me this blog address. I have been keeping you and your family in my prayers. I hope you don't mind, but I passed this along to some of the A Xi D girls. We will continue to keep you in our prayers.

Jayne, Duke and Cate -
We are thinking of you ALL THE TIME and are so encouraged by the good reports. Your pretty little girl is a lot stronger than her size suggests! How wonderful to hold her! We wish you strength for every little (and big) triumph in the days to come. Thanks for the blog to keep us updated.
Many thoughts and prayers for good days ahead.
Love,
Molly, Jim and Leo
