The Young and the Restless and Days of our Lives alum, Jordi Vilasuso, and his wife Kaitlin recently revealed that their third daughter, Lucy Noelle, who was born several weeks early, was in the NICU with RSV. The new mom reveals she’s thankful for the improvements the baby has made over the past few days, and she’s asked people to send more prayers for them.
Kaitlin took to Instagram full of thankfulness and shared photos of herself and Jordi (ex-Rey, Y&R; ex-Dario, DAYS) with their little daughter. She wrote, “Got to hold my girl.. 🙏🏻💕 Jordi and I are so thankful for you all covering us in prayer and love, yet again. I know it sounds crazy, but we literally FEEL it and our family has gained so much strength from your encouragement. 🙏🏻 Our little Lucy is proving to be quite the little fighter. The biggest praise report is that the x-ray of her lungs looked significantly better than the one they took the night she was transferred to the NICU- PRAISE GOD 😭🙏🏻 (I’ll add to stories so you can see!)
“We still have a lot of big prayers to pray for her, though, and would be so so grateful if you join us in continuing to lift her up,” she continued. “She is still on the CPAP machine, but we are praying that as they try to wean her off of it, her pulse ox and respiratory rate stay strong and the CO2 in her blood continues to decrease. Once she is able to be weaned off of the CPAP, they’ll move her to regular oxygen w/o pressure and (providing vitals are good) will be able to remove the feeding tube. 🙏🏻 It is crazy how much I miss holding her and feeding her and being able to comfort her in that way, so we are praying big prayers that there aren’t any setbacks as her little body navigates these next steps, however long they may take.
“We are beyond grateful for the positive progress, but physically exhausted from the past week, emotionally exhausted for our girl and struggling to figure out the logistics of being there for Lucy, while still being there Riley and Evie, who are having a hard time, too. 😕 Praying for strength for whatever the rest of this journey to healing looks like,” Kaitlin wrote. “Thank you for loving us and for caring about our babies like you do. As always, we are forever grateful. 🙏🏻❤️”
Y&R’s Elizabeth Hendrickson (Chloe) wrote, “Been praying and holding space for all of you in my heart daily. Sending more love and prayers, what great news!!! Lucy, you got this baby girl !!!”
“It doesn’t sound crazy! He is so faithful! Continuing to pray!!” replied Jen Lilley (ex-Theresa, DAYS).
