Keith and I found out that the NICU is on complete lockdown for visitors. Keith and I will be allowed in to see the babies, but absolutely nobody else for their entire stay. Our kids aren't even allowed to go in for a quick peek. They've had to take extra precautions because of the swine flu pandemic. We've also been informed that when the babies are released from the NICU and sent home, we cannot have them around any type of cigarette smoke whatsoever. For those of our friends and family who smoke, we have to politely ask that the day you come to visit, you cannot smoke. Not even if you change your clothes or wash your hands, it will still be in your hair an on your skin. They have told us that even though they may come home with us, they are still going to be five weeks premature and that we have to take those precautions for quite some time because their immune systems will be weaker for the first year. We haven't told the kids yet that they won't be able to see the babies. It breaks my heart. I know at last count, the NICU had 53 babies by itself, so I can understand why they want to keep visitors completely limited. As soon as they're born, I'll have Keith post photos on my webpage immediately. He'll keep everyone updated as soon as he can get to my computer. I just keep working on one day at a time and now we only have 5 days left until we meet our little miracles. God has been amazing. I'll post more as I have information or news. Love you all very much! |
