Day #2 so far...
Addy is having a much better afternoon then her morning! I ended up going home last night to get a much needed night of sleep (after being up for 20+ hours) and was awoken by James calling around 7am to say I needed to get back up to the hospital because Addy was having trouble breathing. When I got up to the Hospital the PICU doctor, nurses and RT were in the room and Addy's oxygen numbers were in the middle to high 80's (which was better then when James called). Evidently Addy had "crashed" (oxygen numbers dropped) because they had been messing with her nose (nasal swab or something) and it made her mad. She had a very difficult time regrouping and that's what scared everyone. The Respiratory Therapist decided to take her off her own BiPap machine and put her on theirs which has made the world of difference. She is down to 35% oxygen (which is roughly 4 liters of oxygen) and her Oxygen Stats are ranging from 95-98 which is FANTASTIC compared to yesterday! Heartrate is still down but not as low as it should be and Addy has been more alert! She has been awake more and hollars out if somebody isn't standing beside her when she wakes up. Usually she'll hold our finger and drift right back to sleep but it's the security she needs! Please continue to pray for Addy, she's definitely not out of the woods yet but seems to be a little better!
