When we have had to adjust/modify/change something so it works for us we call "it" Gaynorized. Hope you enjoy the ride! We have learned to find joy through loss and love.

Tests, tests, and more tests...
Ok lots of tests were done today, including head, chest, & heart ultrasounds. They don't have the results yet. Kevin and Teresa also haven't had a chance to talk to the doctors yet. Averi's nurse has been awesome and informative. For now, it seems that everyone is happy with how she is doing on nitric oxide and the high frequency ventilator...she is stable. They thank all of you for your continued prayers.
Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) is a birth defect that occurs when the diaphragm does not fully form, allowing organs to enter the chest cavity preventing lung growth. CDH strikes 1 in every 2500 babies - 1600 babies each year in the U.S. alone. 50% of these babies do not survive. The cause is not known.
