she had her CAT scan
there is still no results from
her surgery yesterday and her scan today
she's still heavily sedated and resting
her nurse told me she's doing ok
they are taking a lot of fluids from her
-she's on continuous dialysis -so that's good
and they were able to lower her settings on
her breathing machine -so that's good
and her 'numbers' are good -so that's good
also the air around her heart has not increased
so they 'think' that's good...
a lot of guessing and waiting and this is driving me
nuts!

good news ...and bad
the good news is that they've taken that
big, double-wide vent tube out of her mouth
and replaced it with a smaller one
seems the issue of a 'collaped lung' has passed
she's oxygenating well and her numbers are good
the bad news is that her x-ray this morning revealed
air in the sack around her heart
it's not causing any trouble yet,
but they gotta fix it, air is escaping from somewhere
so today they'll do a CAT scan and more x-rays
to see what's wrong and also get the results from her surgery
big day for my little girl
