Madden's Road to Recovery

Madden has spent the past 14 days of her life in the NICU where she battles every day to become stronger and more ready to breathe on her own.  We can now hold her, which has been a bigger joy than I could have ever realized, and we continue to love on her as much as we can through the bassinet in the NICU.


We are hoping this week to receive the good news that she can be taken off her ventilator and given a chance to start eating on her own.  She is currently receiving food through a tube connected to her tummy that allows the esophagus to heal from surgery.  We will keep you posted and thank everyone for the amazing support you've shown our family.  It means so much to us to know you are praying for our little Madden. :)

    What a beautiful family! You look amazing, Jill--can't believe you just had a baby :) Thanks for keeping us posted--we will keep praying. We can't wait to meet Madden.

    Love,
