We had a long night here and it kind of seems like a dream now. The baby for the most part was doing fine yesterday evening. Although after an hour or so after she would eat she would throw up. She was only 4 days old, so we don’t know if she had been keeping anything down since she was born. Jess said she seemed a bit dehydrated and we were glad we were going to be going into the hospil in the morning. We put her down last night and she slept pretty good and woke up around 2. Jess fed her and she sleep a little more. She was crying a few hours later and i held for a bit and then she seemed hungry. She was eating better then she had before and seemed to be keeping it down. Around 5 we laid her back in her bed and just a few minutes later she started to throw up again. Except this time it looked different and had a lot come out. Jess went out to get a change of clothes and when she came back in I thought she looked limp. Jess took her to check her vitals and she wasn’t breathing at that point. She turned her over and there was a lot more fluid that came out. She still wasn’t breathing so Jess started respiration and cpr. She worked on her for probably 20 minutes or so with no result. By that point we had called a teacher at our university who had brought the child over. They came over and we rushed to the hospital, but at that point it was to late. Jess thinks she must have had a more serious problem than anyone thought. They were concerned with her getting an infection, but Jess thinks she was probably taking fluid into her lungs and it eventually suffocated her.

We’re so sad to report this news. It was a rough night here and we’re asking God why he allowed this to happen. We trust that He has a greater reason and we know she is in a better place now. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!
