Up and Down

The good news first... Kiya was the FIRST baby to survive at Utah Valley Hospital who had a hemoglobin count of 1.  A normal newborn has a count between 17-22 gm/dl.  She is absolutely a little miracle!

Sighs... Kiya's doctors told Matt and Kris that her health and recovery would be a roller coaster ride.  Unfortunately, Kiya is back on a downhill side of the roller coaster right now.  Although she has made considerable strides with her respiration, other areas of her little body are not functioning quite as well.  We will post more when Matt and Kris are more comfortable disclosing it... In the meantime, please continue to hope and pray for our little Kiya.  We love her so much and greatly appreciate having her special little spirit with us...
