I took Susanna in to our family doctor's office yesterday, per the request by Children's.  They were able to get the urine sample by taping this little bag directly to her body.  The first time, the potty went everywhere.  The second time, the bag worked.  They are checking for blood and protein in the urine.  They weighed her and I am delighted to say that she's now up to 11lb12.5oz, so still growing, although slowly!  The nurse who took her blood pressure had not taken the blood pressure on an infant since nursing school and according to her findings, her blood pressure in her arm is a little high and her leg blood pressure is dangerously low.  I highly doubt the accuracy of the numbers.  However, the same pattern of her leg blood pressure being lower than her arm blood pressure was found as was seen at Children's last week and that is the opposite of what is normal.  The next step is going back to Children's on 4/21.  My husband's mother will be flying in to watch the children while we're gone.  That's such a huge blessing!  Thank you to all of you who are praying for us and encouraging us during this time!

Love, Dawn
