Neil is Here!

Well . . . I am officially an Aunt . . . it is weird to think that but I am. On June 25th, Chloe started to feel really sick and started to see spots, so she went into the doctor and her blood pressure was extremely high 168/111, so she was immediately hospitalized.

On the 26th she was life flighted to the hospital on 5300 south. It was there that they were able to stabilize her blood pressure through medication. She was doing really good so they gave here some medication to start developing Neil’s lungs and told us they were going to wait until Sunday to deliver him (if they didn’t Chloe’s kidneys and liver would shut down and then she would loose her baby) Then at 7:30 pm her blood pressure shot up again and they decided to do an emergency c-section. At 7:54 pm Neil Matthew was born and whisked away to the NICU. Fortunately he was able to scream when he was born, meaning that his lungs are developed enough to work. Now it is just a matter of waiting to see how long he is in the hospital, but mother and baby are doing great!
