DAY 23

Faith has remained stable through the night and throughout the day. Her stomach still looks HUGE, but they believe the bleeding has stopped. There was concern yesterday that she had clotted in her IVC, but ultrasound today showed that is not the case. The IVC was being compressed by the abdominal pressure and was prohibiting adequate blood flow to the heart. Thank heavens!


We have good news amongst all of this craziness....our housing at Ronald McDonald will be able to continue. The only thing we have to do is change rooms on the 1st. What a relief to take something off of our stressload.

I will be back to the hospital tomorrow. Our schedule had to be tweaked a bit due to Monty's schedule. So, hopefully, the night will go well and I will be able to report progress tomorrow.

As always, thanks for your prayers and well wishes.

  2. I am happy to hear that everything worked out with RM and that is one less worry you have to deal with. Things sound better with Faith and glad to hear that as well!
