The Twins


Some information from Michelle on the babies - 

hi all,
just wanted to share the latest on the twins. they did an ECHO test on matt that came back negative for any heart problems thank god! and they both are completely off the oxygen. matt isnt as congested as emma but after speaking to the nurse this morning matt still continues to be having the brady episodes. he had 7 last night that lasted about 15 seconds each but he did recoop on his own they didnt have to resesitate. im going to find out more about this issue when i go to the hospital this aftenoon and speak to the doctor. the one good thing is they put them in the same room and their "will" to try and fight this RSV completely changed. they are both more allert and eating better. i said from day one that if you put them together they will do better. matt has always responded to emma. if she cries he will wake up and he will start fussing until she calms down. and then hes fine again. twins have a way of knowing when somethings not right with eachother and i think if this is a pattern little miss emma between daddy zack and matt will be very protected her whole life!!! well zack just woke up so time to start another day love you all hugs xoxoxox chel


hey all,
just about the time you don't think things can get worse...they can!!! Emma is doing the same. not better but not worse so we are praying she will start getting better soon!! shes still on oxygen but eating well and nothing has spread to her lungs.THANK GOD!! Matt on the other hand isn't doing so well. as you know they did the EKG and it came back ok but today he started having more Brady episodes and they had to resuscitate twice. they did an echo test tonight and should have those results back in the morning after to cardiologist reads them. i cant thank you all enough for your prayers and concern. i ask that you please keep praying that they are back home with us soon. both healthy and doing well! please pray for Zack as well. hes doing very well learning where his eyes , ears, and nose are lol but poor thing is so confused. he keep looking in there crib daily and then looks at me like "hey mom...where did those tiny people go?" lol i don't quite know how much more i can handle. between lack of sleep and stress build up im starting to lose it!!! speaking of sleep I'm gonna end here and try to get some sleep!!! love you all and thank you again hugs and kisses chel


hello all
just wanted to update you on the progress of matt and emma. they are both holding there own. both are still on oxygen but they are lowering the amount of oxygen daily to try and ween them from it slowing. emma is a little worse than matt when it comes to the RSV virus itself. she has alot more mucus and secretions build up and they and trying to clear that as much as possible but she is eating well and holding down her food. matt however was having what they call "brady episodes" which is irregular heart rythems they did an EKG tonight and the senior cardiologist will read it in the morning and they'll let us know
