Journal entry by Kassandra Neihart —
Alayna is doing so much better today! She was moved out of the PICU and into a normal hospital room. She has been drinking formula since this morning and was just approved to start eating solids. Occupational therapy came and visited today, we were able to get Alayna to sitting up (with very little amount of support) for about 15 minutes. They will continue coming throughout our stay to work with her. She has overall been doing better than what everyone expected! Her antibiotics and steroids will be done on Monday and we will start the discussion of discharge then. Thank you for all of your support 💕
