I'm home for the weekend. Lily is doing well. She is stable and so far is behaving herself.
They put in a central line on Friday so now she has a permanent line that they can use for surgery. The also got another IV line in her hand so they could give her some blood. Her blood count was a little low, so they want to make sure that she is ok for her surgery on Tuesday.
Lily continues to "desat" and they have been manually bagging her which brings her oxygen level up faster than if they try to let her do it on her own. One of her blood cultures also came back positive with a gram positive cocci. This could be just a normal skin flora so nothing to get excited about right now. I'll post more info as I get it.
Danny and I will be going back down on Monday evening so we will be there with Jen and Lily on Tuesday for Lily's surgery.
That's all I know for now.
Love to all,
Barb
ps...We just got Lily's hospital bill from Lutheran...three days $20,000. Thank you God for insurance and thank you all for paying taxes!
