The nurses and doctors in the ICU work so hard in keeping an eye on that and giving parents some ease of mind. I'm glad that she's peeing a little too. Yay! I know a parent whose little boy who was born with one kidney, had his surgery, and he's thriving into a very healthy boy. Overall, Hope is looking very good! Praise God for His miracles. I'm praying for continuing good news for you guys.Mom 2 Andréhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11578285307441996070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897689393274111024.post-68005866699491688152009-10-01T23:55:42.960-04:002009-10-01T23:55:42.960-04:00Braeden was very swollen after his Norwood too.

It was scary, and even though I had an idea of what to expect, I was a little shocked at first.<br />I did not realize that Hope has small kidney's, so does Braeden! They were not certain if he even had a left kidney until he was born ,and they could do a renal scan. Both of his kidney's are smaller than they should be, and one is located in his pelvic area, but he still managed to come through his surgeries quite well. We continue to lift your family in our prayers as Hope continues on the road to recovery.<br /><br />~Stephanie and BraedenStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262832699270194252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897689393274111024.post-89036436260725753432009-10-01T23:45:33.044-04:002009-10-01T23:45:33.044-04:00wow, she is swollen. but i'm soooo happy that ...wow, she is swollen. but i'm soooo happy that she is alive and doing well!!! i'm sooo proud of her. she's such a little fighter!!! love her!!she is a miricle. love, geraleiaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897689393274111024.post-82267256875017491452009-10-01T22:26:38.238-04:002009-10-01T22:26:38.238-04:00Ah...pee...yes, you will have countless coversatio...Ah...pee...yes, you will have countless coversations about pee over the next few days.

It was a very difficult time but I loved being able to sit next to him and talk to him and hold his little swollen hand. I felt like maybe in some small way it brought him a little bit of normalcy and peace. I wish you and your darling little Hope the best during this trying time. She is in my prayers.kirk and carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15509354157642432505noreply@blogger.com
