I posted a post about 10 days ago updating on the girls and I mentioned that they had Grade 1 bleeding on the brain which we were told means that its just basically a bruise on their brain and it was not continual bleeding.
Today they had another head ultra sound and the nurse practitioner called to update us with news that I was not expecting to hear.
Molly's bleeding has progressed to level 2. It is bleeding and the ventricles that are connected from her spine to her brain are swollen with fluid and they told us that they are going to have to moniter her closely and make sure that too much fluid isnt going to her brain.
If the bleeding does not get better then we will have to speak with a neurosurgeon about placing a shunt in her brain to stop the swelling and bleeding.
After taking all this information in the nurse practitioner asked me if I was okay and I choked back tears and told her I was fine then we hung up and Rick and I just sat on the couch put our heads together and I cried.
I just dont understand. I look at her and she is so happy and beautiful and perfect she doesnt seem like anything is wrong with her at all, yet inside of her little
3 lb 13oz body she has a battle going on and it breaks my heart.
I just want my babies to be healthy and home.
Please pray that Molly's bleeding will be healed without the help of a neuro surgeon and please pray that she will suffer NO long term affects from this.
I am praising God that Emma's head ultra sounds did not get worse. They have stayed the same.
Please dont stop praying for my girls, they still need all of your prayers.Rick and I still need all of your prayers. We need strength, wisdom, and guidance. All of this is so scary and overwhelming for us.
My girls are such strong fighters I know that they will be okay.
I just know they will.
Aw man that's hard. I will def be praying for sweet Molly. And for you two as you walk through this challenge.
