28 August

Nothing new today really. Still waiting on the million dollar question of when the surgery will take place.

The Picture of the Day shows Audrey under her "sun lamp". As is the case in some newborns, she has neonatal jaundice ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neonatal_jaundice ), or a yellowing of the skin due to an excess of bilirubin in her system. The light helps her metabolize the bilirubin, and it is wasted into her poo. No big deal there at all. The yellowing and light treatment are not related to her cardiac problems. Check out her cool shades that protect her eyes from the bright light.

That's about it. More info when it arrives.
