Brooke

Well not much new on the Brooke front we did finally get over to see her tonight but I am super tired and need to go to bed. She looks much better then I though she would.

She is in the NICU at Children's Hospital in St. Paul. She is able to breath on her own and she did today but they sedated her a bit so when we saw her she was using the breathing machine. But the doctors have orders in for it to come out. The nurses are just waiting a bit. All of her organs are fine. Her lung has already repair it self. Right now she is on a cooling mat they are trying to keep her cool thus trying to keep the swelling down right now. She will come off of that in about 48 hours and then be brought up to normal temp. When her temp is normal they are going to do a CAT scan of her brain to find out how much damage has been done. So Sat. or Sunday is the day we are all waiting for. She does have a Web Site being set up and as soon as I find out the link I will let you all know. For now I am off to bed. And I will leave you all with a picture of new baby Brooke holding her daddy's hand.
Update: Brook's website can be found here: http://caringbridge.org/cb/viewHome.do or by going to Caringbride.org and where it says enter a website name enter BrookeSimonton
