picture of Elly taken 8-27-06 She looks good in her hat made by her friend Kay.

She is 2lbs 6 oz. as of yesterday.

She will be having a contrast study tomorrow in her colon and and an enema. This will tell the doctors if anything is wrong with her colon.

She continues to leak and the doctors believe she will probably not heal. Surgery is most likely the solution but I will know more tomorrow.

Her lungs are okay they still need PT for a little deflation on one lung.

She began her feedings today at 4pm. She is eating for the first time !!

I will post more tomorrow when I return from the hospital.

God Bless you for your generosity and love for our little Elly .
