Today we have been on a slow and steady course. No progress, yet no setbacks and we are fine with that.
They are concerned about yeast in her lungs, but the cultures have not come back yet to let us know.
She is in a lot of pain and they are having a hard time controlling it. It is great that she is waking up and wanting to fight us, but we don't want her to be so uncomfortable.
As for her feet, a physician from Shriners burn unit came to look at it. She wants to wait it out to see how much damage is done. The outer tissue was removed and the right foot looks like it may be ok. The left foot has clots in the veins and probably won't fare so well. Only time will tell and they may not make a choice for a month or so as long as no infection sets in.
A mom from Georgia called and shared her story of her miracle daughter, Megan. She heard about Faith and wanted to make sure I heard the story of her inspiring daughter defeating all odds. It meant a lot for her to share her story and give us more hope. Thank you.
I will check in tomorrow.
Keep the faith for Faith! Wow how very blessed for that mom from Georgia to contact you! Faiths story is so inspiring, stears us towards HIM, and touches many near and far. I pray that her feet, lungs, and recovery is all heading towards a more comfortable position for her. She is a special little girl!!

Shelly,
ReplyDeleteSteady sounds really good after the ride you've been on over the past several days. I continue to think of you and your family. Faith sounds like a fighter, and it is that spirit that will get her through this!
Still thinking of all of you and so glad that everything is going well. Shelley and Monte-I want to commend both of you, Faith is very lucky to have you as parents. I see where she gets her strength and courage from!
