Guest guest Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 The other children love it because they can get up in the bed with her and cuddle, read her books and "play" with her. Also, it is easier to take care of her as far as lifting, changing, suctioning, etc Hi Kathy, I'm glad the hospital bed is helping. It's wonderful her sibs can interact with Audrey more easily now! That must be such a joy to you and Amie. And anything that makes physical care easier is a boon! Thanks for the update. Audrey is such a special little girl.
