Today the doctors told mummy and daddy that I had caught an infection. I didn't feel very well at all, so mummy and daddy didn't take any photos of me today. I was exhausted and didn't have the energy to kick daddy when he changed my nappy. I was also moved into room 4 today from the hot room. I didn't like that at all, and my heart rate and breathing kept dropping, which is a big worry for my parents. The doctors don't know where the infection has come from, so they have sent off more blood cultures to try and find out, and also tried to do a lumbar puncture on me today, so that they could check my spinal fluid. The lumbar puncture didn't work though, so they'll try again tomorrow. Mummy is very upset and worried about me. I know that lots of people all round the country are saying prayers for me, and this makes me feel better.
