She has been wiggling a bit but we have not seen her eyes because she has been back under the photopherapy. She does look a bit pale,but she did just have blood taken.
We will be having a chat with the doc at 1530, hopefully, to get us up to date. But we did get a quick update; she does have a large duct near her heart and it needs to be treated. They have not started treatment yet because she might have an infection and this would reduce the perfomance of the drugs that can close the duct. If there is an infection, they will delay the treatment of the duct for a few days.
They will be taking the line out of her umbilical cord and they need to put a new one in her arm (ouch). They will also be doing a brain scan soon to check up on her bleed.
Should be some more info in the next post.

Its great to hear that Katy is having a better day today. Her marathon continues. Just to let you know, many people I meet in surgery or on call know about katy and are concerned for the three of you. I hope that you can feel the comfort and strength of their support and good wishes. So far I have managed to hold it together when talking about you. That's a first!
Dear Mark and Leanne
Just a note from us all in the office at the Priory - we are thinking of you all and send our very best wishes. The photos are beautiful.
Sarah, Victoria and Elaine
