One Step Forward, One Step Back

From Emily: "It's been a big day for her... lots of improvements but also some set backs.  They did another head ultrasound and found a brain bleed.  It's not a big bleed and the doctors are optimistic that it will resolve itself, but pray it doesn't get worse.  If it does it's likely to do some brain damage.  Her hematocrit levels were a lot lower too so they had to give her a blood transfusion.  She seems to be tolerating it well, but it's a bit scary.  She was very responsive today and feisty.  I got to hear her cry and everyone was saying she's got a great cry for being so young and tiny.  Normally they're so weak you can't hear them.  The doctors said she was tough, feisty, and quite the fighter."
