The Toe Tourniquet
When we were finally able to bring the twins home from the hospital, I was a nervous wreck. Only 2 nights before they came home, Timothy began to DSAT so low that he turned blue. The doctors immediately put him back on oxygen, and he ended up coming home on O2. I can remember watching…
A Day in the Life…
