Harper got formula today! It is a special formula that is very low in long fat chains, but high in medium chains - the long chains produce more chyle when processed in the liver. So... everything looks good so far and she has been a happy camper all day long! I am sure that Harper is happy to finally have something in her little belly - being a Wilson, I know she was grumpy with her stomach being empty for so long!
We are looking forward to tomorrow morning's talk with the doctors to see how Day 1 of feeding went...

This is the story of overcoming the odds and the power of 'the will to live'. Our daughter continues to fight after being diagnosed with 'Hydrops Fetalis', given very little chance to live, arriving 6 weeks early and battling 'Chylothorax' each day.
We hope this story will give promise and inspiration to other parents who have been diagnosed similarly to Harper and are seeking a positive outlook.
"Every little thing gonna be all right!"

110% is fueling little Harper. Remember I still want to claim a 10% agent fee for when she goes big time
