Today was a quiet day at the hospital. Kenna slept a lot from the little bit of pain med she had following yesterday's surgery, but took several walks, had a good time during Carsyn's visit, and did some painting in the play room.
The cath is working beautifully. By the end of the day however she was running a bit of fever and has a cough, so a precautionary x-ray was taken and an antibiotic started.
It takes 20 matched donors to supply the platelets for one small child for a year. Since her bone marrow has shut down, she's already received 2 units of platelets and 2 units of red cells this week, so donating blood or platelets at your local center would be very welcome. She's at LB Memorial Miller Children's Hospital at least another week, maybe more.
Thank you that so many are praying fervently.
Living in hope,
