Wow! We can't believe it's been over 3 weeks that we've been in the hospital. We never anticipated a routine (as routine as open heart surgery can be), straightforward surgery would result in a lengthy hospital stay. Had this been a normal recovery, we would have been home 5 days later - almost 2 1/2 weeks ago!
To be completely honest, the days are becoming very emotionally and physically draining for both Jon and me. Especially with the holidays approaching, it is difficult to feel like I'm missing out on the twins' lives. We no longer have a target date in mind, we are simply taking things a day and a week at a time.
Since there are alternating physicians on the weekends, no decisions or changes have been made regarding Alexis' care, so nothing new to report on her progress.
Specific Prayer Requests:
Please pray for comfort and rest for Alexis. Honestly, every minute she is awake she is crying and upset. We are asking the doctors tomorrow to look into the possibility of her having a gastro-intestinal or digestion problem. Please pray for her as she is having a lot of discomfort.

Prayed super hard for Lexi and you guys today in church - for God to perform miracles on her. Thinking of you guys every day. -Yoko
Can't imagine how torn you, as parents are.....wanting to be with all the girls at one time....I remember the day sitting in our living room you saying you didn't think you would have children, not really interested in doing that. And look at you now - 3 beautiful daughters...you are to be commended. You are doing ALL that you can do....we pray God will bless you with much strength and heal little Lexie soon. Love, prayers and hugs to all of you.
