Let me start by saying, "You'll never know how much your prayers and kind words have meant to us during Harmony's sickness."  She has had a good day, but is still a sick baby.  She did not get moved to a regular room, but if she continues to do well with the nasal cannula (oxygen) she will be moved tomorrow.  She is still coughing and turning all shades of red and purple, her stats drop, but the important thing is that she is able to recover on her own.  The doctors say she  will continue to have these spells until the whooping cough is gone.  You hear people talk about the whooping cough and the vaccine, but you don't realize that an infectous disease like this can be deadly to an infant.  We do vaccinate our children, but you don't receive that vaccine until you are 2 months old, and Harmony got her shot on 01-12, but she already had whooping cough, we just didn't know it.  They removed her feeding tube tonight and she got to nurse for the first time since early Monday morning.  She has rested a lot today and we have enjoyed holding her and spoiling her.  She blew a vain in her arm and they had to put an IV in her head.  The nurse called it a "party bow", it goes really good with her mohawk!LOL!!

Wes and I are staying at the hospital 24/7 and are being able to sleep in a sleep room.  It is awesome, it has a bed and it's own bathroom.  If she is moved into a room we will stay in there with her.  Remember to pray for God's will and wisdom for the doctors.  Harmony is a trooper and through all this she has been smiling at us showing us those cute little dimples.

Love you all,

Belinda
