Brook's bilirubin continues to be high...boo!!
But rather than be re-admitted to the hospital we are able to use a home bili-light.
It's simply a pad that lights up with a thick cable that attaches to the machine. We wrap the blanket portion around him and it helps to treat his jaundice. He must wear the light 24 hours a day except for feedings and diaper changes, obviously. The only downfall to this light is the heat! It is already the middle of Summer and not cool here in Sacramento.
Regardless, we are happy to have our little Glo-Worm here at home with us!
