Good News Today ! Start singing because sweet Ivey can hear! The hearing test indicated Ivey has minimal hearing loss in both ears. Additionally, the swallowing test that was done yesterday showed Ivey is not aspirating when she spits up. The doctors are still working on getting her reflux under control, but she is improving with her feedings. Ivey was running a fever so more tests are being done to see if she has an infection. They were giving her IV antibiotics to fight off whatever is going on in her little body.
Matt and Gwen have expressed how much they appreciate all of the blog posts, well wishes, and meals they have received from everyone. There has been a lot of response with providing meals to the family and fortunately they will receive hot meals MWF until the end of July. Miranda was still filling in with freezer ready casseroles for those who still want to help. Also, some people have offered to give Matt and Gwen gift certificates that could be used for dinners at places that offer curbside takeout. Please contact Miranda Styles at mirandastyles@comcast.net if you want to provide a gift certificate or casserole.
Thank you again for all of your support!
Confessions from the mind of this sleep deprived mom navigating the world of complex medical needs, deafblindness, and special education. And y'all, it may not always be pretty, but it's real, and it's always for the love of Ivey.
