"Chance and I were the first to visit Baby Lilly this morning. Her vitals are all really good and her color is great. She has healed almost all the blisters. Her neck is still swollen. The doctors are not going to do another X-ray of the clot until Monday, so we have no new news on that. This is Chance swabbing Lilly's mouth with Julie's colostrum breast milk. Keep praying for this little family."

"Baby Lilly is very far from being out of the woods. They really don't even know if she could breath on her own. She's sedated on an opiate stronger than morphine. However, she's in no pain and does not appear to be in any distress. This baby is totally in the hands of the Lord. Praise God."

"This is so wrong on so many levels. I'm laying here in a California hospital bed at 5:00 AM trying to rationalize why Julie, Chance and Lilly are having to go through this senseless trauma. I just don't get it. I pray that God will let me in on his plan and give us all some relief. I pray for Lilian's recovery. I pray for all of the suffering in the world. That's all I can do."

"This will be my last day for awhile to be with Lilian. I will be leaving her here in the hands of the doctors, nurses, her mom and dad and our Lord who formed her from clay. It's very hard to see her motionless little body, just laying there and not being able to do anything for her."

Baby Lilly is up and ready to take on a new day. She looks so good this morning. I know it might not seem like a lot for some, but the amount of movement in he right arm means so much to us.

Hi folks. I'd like to get out of here and go home, but I have a little healing to do first. Thanks for the prayers and please keep them coming.

Today is MRI day for Baby Lilly; her first. We need constant prayer that the results are good and the damage to her spine, it reveals, is minimal.

Just heard from Julie and everything went good with the MRI. Lilly's back in her cozy area and all the monitors and tubes are back in place. The Stanford University specialist will come over tomorrow or Friday to take a look at the results. Lilly's regular doctor quickly looked at it and said she didn't see any actual damage to the spine but the gap between 6 & 7 is still there and the spinal cord is herniated between them. The fluid collecting in her abdomen is decreasing and the clot in her liver appears to be very slowly shrinking. This is all do to the amounts of prayers going her way. This is not the time to stop. We all appreciate it.

Baby Lilly is resting up from the full day she had with the MRI, yesterday. However, she was able to squeak out a "huge" victory today. The respiratory therapist confirmed she took three to four breathes on her own. That means her diaphragm is working. This can mean the difference between "life and death". Keep the prayers coming and we'll surely be part of a miracle.

Miss Lillian Bijou Forman has her eye on you. Can't you just see the wheels turning in there? She's a beautiful little girl fighting for her life. With your prayers, she'll get that life.

Just in from Julie, regarding Baby Lilly.
"So she had another ultrasound yesterday too"
"And it looks like the clot in the liver is continuing to retract. Every time they ultrasound it its retracting more and more"
"So they're hopeful they can try to start testing her intestines next week to see if she can get a tear drop of mommas milk"

My lil sweet pea😍 doing pretty good just trying to get blood pressure issue figured out. I got to see mommy do therapy on her arms and legs

Dr Chorne will be Lil's Neonatologist for the next 2 weeks. She actually has training in neurology as well. When she was doing Lil's daily lift, she said she felt muscle movement in her left shoulder!!! Shoulder movement = diaphragm movement. If Lil's right and left shoulders are moving, that means her C5 isn't damaged! Which means her diaphragm will be able to work! This baby is being rebuilt nerve at a time, with your prayers. Don't give up now.

First family photo! She just had a diaper change and mom and dad did her physical therapy. Lots of lab drawn and urine. Running more test. Baby steps for sure but she is a trooper through it all.
