Thanks for sharing Katie. I agree, the people at Children's are amazing...saved my son's life. When we arrived at Children's H's ammonia was 1071, and look how well he his doing! You guys are always in my prayers!<br /><br />Oh, they brought up the "cooling babies" study with us too, but you know, we were so confused at that point, the word "experimental" scared us off. I didn't even think to call her pediatrician and ask her opinion. <br /><br />-SairahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671950453367779439.post-39871490733459132672011-02-03T22:34:22.609-05:002011-02-03T22:34:22.609-05:00You are such a brave mama and a wonderful advocate...You are such a brave mama and a wonderful advocate for your baby girl.

I cannot believe what you went through (I can believe it, I mean it is just so crazy). I honestly think it was your motherly instincts that kept your baby girl alive. You are doing a great job and I wish I could do more then just leave you an anonymous comment telling you that I have been praying for you and your family. Best of everything to you and your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5671950453367779439.post-41619376899762899792011-02-03T11:01:45.737-05:002011-02-03T11:01:45.737-05:00Thank you thank you for posting this story.

You and Ian are incredibly brave people who are raising an amazing little girl.

And this post doesn't cover half of it. Something about that uncertainty in the beginning is terrifying.

THEN, we got airlifted to the magical, amazing people that helped us.<br /><br />I am so incredibly thankful you were where you were...and that you had DC to fly to right away.<br /><br />Keep sharing your story!<br /><br />MindyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
