DAY 14 (but who's counting)

We are still here. They tell us this is uncommon to have such a long stay :) I told the nurses to start being mean to Brooke so she wants to go home. Brooke just laughs! Brooke has been so happy today! Smiling, laughing, this is the happiest I've seen her in weeks. The tube feedings are SLOWLY going up. She still vomits with them. But she usually smiles when she's done. She likes to watch us clean up her mess. We are mainly just waiting. Waiting for her feedings to go at their maximum rate and for her to tolerate that. She is getting stronger. She still doesn't eat but that is in her time. Steve and I now have a schedule since the girls are in school. We still alternate every other night and make sure we are home in time for the girls to be home from school and have a "normal" night. Thanks to everyone that has brought meals. I can't describe the look on my girls face to have home cooked meals again. They aren't afraid to eat :) We appreciate everyone's help! God is so good to us and He makes everything work out. We have no doubt in our mind that He is in control and He'll see us through.
