Tomorrow is transfer day!

Brianna is doing great and is up to 2 lbs 6 oz now! The best news is tomorrow morning Brianna is being transferred to Elliot Hospital and will only be about 20 mins away now! We are very excited to have her closer to us it will make visiting her a lot easier. We thought it would be happening next week but all the doctors, nurse practioners, and nurses agree that she is doing so well that she is going to do great at Elliot and they have a great NICU. They did a followup head ultrasound and all looks perfect she has no sign of any kind of brain bleed it looks exactly the same as it did at birth. Tomorrow Hanover will do bloodwork in the morning to doublecheck all her blood levels and will do an eye exam to check her eyes. Tonight one of the nurses was so sad that tonight was her last night to care for Brianna all the nurses think she is so cute and such a stong little girl. Her nurse today said nobody ever expected her to do so well so quickly after having such a rough start and that she has amazed them all. It is a little sad as we have grown very close to a lot of the nurses and they have given her such amazing care and have worked wonders. They said they like to get cards and pictures so I will be sure to send them lots of updates.
