Level two nursery





Lillian was admitted to the level two nursery due to respiratory distress. The put her on oxygen and continued to watch her. I was finally able to go in and she her (once my legs were not as numb) around 3:30 pm. She made little grunts and small crys as a way of trying to keep her lungs open which wore her out quick! A blood gas was done at 8:07 pm which shows chemically how her oxygen is affecting her body. That of course came back looking terrible. Her pediatrician immediately informed me that little Lillian was going to be life flighted to theUniversity. Life flight arrived shortly before 9:00 pm and after placing her on a ventilator and inserting a central line, life flight took our baby at 10:53 pm.
