As you can see from the bandage on Kira's chubby hand, she had some blood work done today. They are continuing to monitor her Bilirubin levels. We are thankful that she has been nursing well, which keeps her from becoming dehydrated (a side effect of the light treatment used for billirubin.) Unfortunately, the pediatrician continues to detect a heart murmur. In the near future, we will take Kira to a pediatric cardiologist to find out more about the cause. Please pray for Kira to be healed of this heart condition.



Above: Cherishing Elianna. 'Grandma' Karen brought Ben and Elianna over for a short visit today. They took turns kissing their baby sister. It was special to see Elianna's interaction. Today, she slowly caressed Kira's head and said, "ohhh, she's so precious." Ben and Elianna also took turns riding around in Kira's bassinet.



From what we were told tonight, we should be released tomorrow. We look forward to returning to Petőfibánya and being together as a family.
