Hospital Update Day 3

Well, we are still at the hospital. We had a crazy morning yesterday, her oxygen levels kept dropping and wouldn't go up. They kept uping her oxygen and suctioning her to keep her clear. She final stablized with her oxygen way up and being suctioned every hour. Poor girl. In the evening she was doing much better, they took her off her IV because she was eating good and doing much better.

Word is the she slept great last night, I also slept good. I was so exhausted and getting dizzy so I went home and litterally passed out in my bed for 7 hours. I didn't even hear my alarm go off. I was really hopeful that today she would continue to improve since she did so well last night.

I was wrong. This morning they suctioned her, gave her some abuterol and then suctioned her again. Her body went crazy after that. Her heart rate was through the roof, she was breathing extremely rapidly and her oxygen was not too low, but lower than they would have liked considering the amout they were giving her. Even after a while her heart and breathing were going wild. She ate really well but then she went limp and her heart and breathing would not slow down. The doctor came and looked at her and they decided to do some blood work because she also had a fever of 101.5 which is the highest it has been.

She has calmed down now and her heart and everything seems to be ok, they gave her some tylenol and took blood, so we are waiting on blood results and she is sleeping. I really feel for our poor little girl. She is so exhausted and working so hard to breathe. I will post what her blood results are once we hear and hopefully the rest of the day is uneventful!
