Hi all,
Hope things are well for everyone.
The nurses and doctors decided not to go with the continuous feed. Rather they just changed her 'High Flow' settings so she is getting more stimulation to help her breathe. (Editorial Comment: Those darn medical-types!)
With this being said Zoe is still on her once a day bottle feedings in order to work on that coordination and built up her strength and stamina. (Editorial Comment: Awesome!) Phil and I got to witness the bottle feeding exercise this morning. 20 minutes later, Zoe had finished the entire bottle! This sight was amazing, especially since the previous day she just got tired out so easily. The therapist and nurses were very excited about her development.

We hope (Editorial Comment: And pray!) that this continues, but know that this was a unique event (Editorial Comment: I disagree!) and working up to regular bottle feeds will still have its ups and downs. (Editorial Comment: I agree, but remain optimistic!) The holiday remains busy and quiet. (Editorial Comment: Just a bit of a contradiction there, Kim.)
Merry Christmas and Blessed New Year,
(Editorial Comment: ZAC's GP & GM say Merry Christmas too!)

Merry CHRISTmas Casmer family. So wonderful to hear Zoe's accomplishments. We will pray that her bottle feedings keep progressing and increase her stamina. Consider that it is a miracle that she is doing so well for the size she started at. God is certainly watching over her. God Bless. Dave & Gayle
She is sooooo precious! I just love those little feet!
God Bless you Kimberly, Philip and Zoe. May you have a wonderful, peaceful, blessed Christmas Day! We are thanking our Lord daily for his many, many blessings and for Zoe's continued progress.
With much love and many prayers,
Aunt Sharon, Uncle Gentry and girls
Merry Christmas, Zoe! Love, Auntie Shelly
Merry Christmas, little Zoe! May you (and your parents) sleep in heavenly peace this evening, and every evening, until you come home to your own bed! Luv, Uncle Mark, Aunt Carol, Sydney and Lindsey. =:^)
God bless and keep you all this wonderful Christmas season. Zoe, you keep right on proving that God is in control of your growth, strength and improvements! ;) Pat Kuhn
