Hello from the 8th Floor..

here's what's up this morning:
*just took her for another MRI. a new neurosurgeon wanted her re-checked before they cut sedation to try and increase her breathing
*still "riding the vent"...no good-she really needs to start breathing on her own (which is why they ordered to cut her sedation, which was overridden by the neurosurgeon until they get MRI results)
*chest x-ray still hazy this morning

We have had the same 2 FABULOUS nurses, Heather and Amy for a few days (can't remember, I haven't been outside since Thursday:)). Heather was supposed to be off today before her bridal shower tonight, but picked up a shift to come in today and be with us. She said she had checked the schedule and we didn't know anybody on today so she wanted to be with us. So sweet of her. LOVE this hospital.

More soon!

Heidi, I am so saddened by this, and I am praying hard for your sweet baby girl and your family. I am amazed by your faith and strength. My brother had bacterial meningitis as a baby (your posts remind me so much of stories from my mom), and now he is a happy, healthy father of three. May you continue to feel the peace of the Lord.
Love, Michele (Johnson) Stewart

What a blessing that you have such wonderful care in the hospital. I'm sure that alone is an encouragement to know that the medical staff is working hard for you & sweet baby Kaiya. Sounds like she's in great hands. Praying for the Great Physician to restore her to full health quickly!

Thanks again for the constant updates - we appreciate it. Oh, and in response to one of your other posts, you could never over-update...keep them coming!

so great that nurse Heather is there for you guys today. It sounds like she and Amy are making the experience a little more "enjoyable". I will be praying for the results of today's tests. Thanks for all the updates. You guys are in still in my prayers!
