One of the nurse practitioners warned Jennifer early on that the nipple feeding phase would be one of the most challenging of our NICU stay--she was spot on. Already there has been way too much drama, confusion, misunderstanding, and tears (yes, tears). In some ways it's like a silly little soap opera that we really want no part of. Hopefully it smooths over, which we hope it will after all of our discussions today.

Welcome to the Delaney Rose blog...
Delaney was born January 27, 2010 at 3:09 pm on a snowy Gunnison day. She was 14 weeks premature and weighed 1 pound 15 ounces. We survived 80 days in Grand Junction at St. Mary's NICU, and finally made it home the third week in April. We created this blog while living in GJ so that our friends and family could stay up to date on Delaney's progress. We plan to maintain the site and post when we can, so please enjoy!

Everything is going to be fine and pretty soon you'll look back on your soap opera as a saga that you dealt with exceptionally well. We all admire you and are proud to be your friends. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteI remember clearly the tears I shed during this phase. And then one day, something clicks. And it comes together.
ReplyDeleteYou know Delaney better than anyone else in this world, Brandon and Jennifer. Trust your instincts. Delaney will let you know what she can do and when she can do it.
You have all been so loving and so patient for these past months. The final reward is SO TOTALLY WORTH IT!
Hoping you received good news from the heart tests today. We are pulling for you from CB!
