SLOW GOING ...but a little better

Posted 1 hour ago

Katie had a good night last night...received extra IV fluids yesterday.

Her left lung is very saturated with fluid around it--it is still a wait-and-see game for our next step.

Katie looks a little puffy and tired after yesterday’s ordeal on her body. We can’t really use the wheelchair easily now that she has a central IV line in her neck.

Our mornings in the step down unit typically start around 4 a.m. – when the “blood lady” comes.

An Atlanta Braves coach, Brian Snitker, stopped by and gave Katie an autographed hat and doll. She clearly said “thank you” , “sleep” and “bye bye.”

Thanks for your continued prayers for the fluid to 'go away' from around her lungs.

Jer. 33:3
"Call to me and I will answer you
and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know."
Blessings,
