Monday, November 24 P.M.

Since I (Cherie) am now in Columbus by myself, I will be updating these posts once a day - probably each evening. Today has been a busy day as we have moved to a new hospital unit. All of the attending physicians needed to examine Lexi and talk with me about her progress. We had medical visitors for 4 hours straight this morning. Alexis had another CAT scan this morning because neurologists were concerned about her inability to feed, as well as some issues with her eyes. We started working on feedings today with a feeding specialist. This is going to be a slow process. We are hoping to see her get stronger with each attempted feeding.

Specific Prayer Requests:

The neurologists as they try to make a decision about some unanswered issues.

Pray that Alexis will show improvement in her attempted feedings.

Pray for me as I'm here alone. It's becoming physically and emotionally draining being Alexis' only advocate down here trying to meet with doctors and make decisions about her care. I need specific prayer for strength and energy. This is going to be a long process for everyone.
