Prayers Needed

Today we were told that Brianna might need to have laser eye surgery. She has ROP which means the blood vessels growing to attach to her retina are not growing straight but instead growing curvy. Right now she is at what they call Stage 2 Zone 2 of ROP. The eye doctor will do another eye exam on Monday and if its not any better than they recommend laser surgery to the vessels that are curvy so that they can re-grow straight. If things look better on Monday she might not need surgery. If she needs surgery she would need to go back to Hanover for a week to have the surgery done. She would need to go under anesthesia and go on a ventilator for the surgery which they would try and get her off of the ventilator within a day so that she doesn't become dependant on it. Otherwise she is doing great and hit 3 lbs today! She is handling her feedings well and has been offerred a bottle once she did ok and took 2 ml by mouth but than got tired and slept for 4 hours. They will continue to work on it little by little.
