Doing fine

I've wanted to update, but every night I'm so tired, and every day, so busy. 

Emily and Abby are both fine.  I've had conjunctivitis since Saturday and I haven't been feeling well.  I'm on my second antibiotic drop because I had a bad reaction to the first, making my eye worse.  This isn't a huge problem, but not touching it or the girls too much has been.  It's also VERY painful.  I'm praying it clears soon. 

I'll update more tomorrow, but for tonight:

~Emily's G-J-tube is in place.  It's going fairly well.  We've started feedings in the J-line and continue to drain the G.  I'll explain this more tomorrow, but pray she tolerates the feedings.

~She pulled her PICC down some.  It's still in the subclavian, so usable, but no longer a going home line.  It might be even further down now. 

~Abby's struggling with feedings--- big time.  She needs to do better tomorrow. 

~Her new Broviac is infected around the skin.  The line is fine, she has no fever, but the site looks really bad.  The site of the old line is very close to the new one and it is open and oozing.  I'm very worried about this.  She is definitely the sicker of the two girls. 

Jeff and Grandparents left, everyone else is well. 

I'm going to try to get some much needed sleep :)
