Ella did not do well emotionally last night. A nurse did a bad job I think removing the bandages and changing some of the tubes, so even after the nurses changed shifts Ella still got stressed even when the new nurse came near her.
One of us (Michelle), had to sleep with her overnight as what with the nurse stuff and extreme lack of sleep was making Ella extremely emotional.
They wanted to give Ella medicine orally every two hours last night, one of them was just Pepcid, Michelle explained that she would have to break their arms if they did that (or she kind of implied it)...so the medication time was changed so that Ella was able to get some sleep.
This morning Ella is still very fussy but not quite as bad as last night.
At the moment she is watching the "Snowman"DVD.
We are getting mixed reports about what the xray showed with Ella's lungs, hopefully it will be made clearer when the doctors do their rounds later.

Way to advocate, Michelle! If it's not absolutely necessary, it can wait! It's important that little Ella get her rest. Thinking of you all,
