Our tough little girl was quite restless and a uncomfortable last night. Her heart rate has been high right along with her breathing rate. Her left leg has been a little swollen and they worked last night to determine if it was some clotting around the central line. We are also see evidence of some potential infection which they are treating with a broad range anti biotic. We had ultrasounds done on both the central line and the arterial line. Her first test to see if she is ready to be off the ventilator failed. We will keep working towards getting her to breathing on her own.
We are having conversations with the PICU docs and Neurology docs about next steps for assessing her brain.

Hi my sweet Daisy angel--poor little lady I hope they have you feeling better again and not so uncomfortable. Nana loves you very much and am praying for you very hard! You keep on working to being able to breathe without the ventilator and you will get there- you are a tough little lady, that's for sure! Don't you take any crap from anybody, my angel! Tell mommy and daddy to hang in there and many, many prayers are coming yours and their way! I love you sweetie! Air hugs and kisses from nana
