Struggling

Last night at midnight we got the call that Jordan's post-partum pre-eclampsia was so severe that they were going to start a mag drip. I remember clearly that week after Jocelyn was born and those scary hours that we spend. I went up to the hospital before work where she was in a darkened room and told she could have no visitors and not care for Jenavieve in order for her to be totally unstimulated. I sat and held Jenavieve for a sweet 1 1/2 hour so Patrick could eat and Jordan could rest. Rather than a 24 hour drip, this is going to be a 48 hour process. She does appear to be better emotionally than after Jocelyn was born. That is a huge praise.
