Staying Strong

So everything was going well this morning, they even turned down her vapor therm from 10 liters to 8 liters. It still looks and sounds like they are blowing off her nose no matter the 2 liter difference. This afternoon around 6 though they came in and turned it back to 10 because she was having a hard time breathing and could not wake-up all day. Yesterday she played with me and cooed but today she could not do anything but sleep. After turning it back up she started to perk up and stayed awake for a few hours. Her Papa Joe and MiMi came and saw her today and talked to her throughout this evening. We all went to eat supper and when we came back the doctors were concerned she was developing a slight fever. When they took her temp earlier today it was about 97 underneath the arm which would make it about 98 degrees. Tonight, however, her temperature was 99 under the arm which means it is about 100 degrees. Therefore they are fearful for an infection, or maybe even something else going on in her lungs. They were a little hesitant to say but they will be monitoring her heavily through the night and will be sending out more blood work to see if they can catch anything before it gets too bad. Please just pray that we do not develop a lung infection or pneumonia. Hopefully she will feel like herself again tomorrow and wake-up and play with me! I do miss her little smile!

Thank you all! I also ask that you keep her friend Max and Haven Grace in your prayers. Max has had to have several procedures done in the last few days but seems to be doing okay. Haven had to be re-admitted today at the age of two and is now on the top of the heart transplant list.

Love,

P.S. I might get to hold her tomorrow!!!!! Hopefully! If they are able to pull out two of her lines leading to her heart than I will get to hold my sweet girl again!! YAY!!!
