"Who could look into the eyes of such a miracle and doubt the reality of God." - Angela Thomas Guffey

Our baby girl, Maylin Dawn, was born on July 18th, 2010, 9 weeks early at Parkview North Hospital in Fort Wayne. She spent 3 weeks and 2 days in the NICU facility. We created this page to keep our family and friends informed of our new life adjustments and updates on Maylin's miracles during her stay there.

Day 12

Thurs. July 29th, 2010
Weight: 3 lbs. 12 oz. Back up to birthweight!!
Bilirubin: 5.1
Dr. Porter
Nurses: AM-Kris
PM-Shay
Visitors: Brandi & Kelly H.

Good news: Off bili blanket for good! yay!

Not so good news: Maylin's umbilical cord started oozing more, skin around the cord started turning an irritating red too. Dr. Smith, the pediatric specialist came and examined the cord again, noting that it still looked like it was "being fed"...and said this thing "had 9 lives" and doesn't want to die!

Started round of IV antibiotics for her and keeping an eye on it.

That evening had a great time with Brandi and Kelly as they came up to visit, and we went out for dinner @ Chili's. What a great night of girl time and chats=) Those girls still crack me up like always!
