An Update on “Mini-Me”

Well, before we dive into an update on Gwendolyn, we wanted to share the photo comparison below. Honestly, it’s pretty frightening just how similar Dad and Gwen look!

As for an update on her situation, there isn’t much. She had a better night than the previous one but still had some desaturations. They are going to flush her nasal passage with a saline-type solution called “Ocean Breeze” (Yep, couldn’t make that up if we wanted to). The hope is that this clears out her nose and maybe opens up her breathing again. We wish we could share something that’s a little more high-tech but at this stage the doctors are still a little stumped on things.

So we suppose that the long and short of it is that there hasn’t been a whole lot new to report but hopefully we’ll get something more concrete soon!

  1. I just want to tell you, this was worth the wait. Although, I'd like to see the baby on the left with a pretty green headband and bow. We need Patrick H. and his magic powers of photoshop!

  2. Talk about freaky. You weren't kidding when you said that she had Chuck's nose. That's uncanny. Little Gwen is always in our prayers but especially now so that she can get passed these breathing issues and everyone can finally relax. She's a little miracle and we all can't wait for her to be home. Breathe deep, little one!

    As always, we are here for you guys for anything you might need.

  3. That photo of Chuck looks very similar to his Freshman yearbook photo. :)

  4. What a hoot! They look so much alike, but frankly Gwen is the more beautiful! I also see where Braelyn got her eyes! We'll be sending best wishes and prayers from Conyers that Gwen gets well soon. I know that it must be so difficult, but know that we are all behind you guys. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
