Hospital's Second Morning and Day Three

The night was a bit difficult... Her veins are a bit sore already and she was in pain every time they went to put medicines.... They are planning to change the catheter to the other hand, which I was hoping they didnt had to do because she cries too much when she sees a needle trying to find a vein and that doesnt make it any better.....

I was hoping she was going to be better by this time today, but she is not.... She is actually worse today, and now needs oxigen as she was having a hard time breathing.... She was even cutting her senteces to breath while talking... She is very down today and has been sleeping a lot (which is soo no her).

After a few hours of oxigen, I was expecting that they were going to take it off, but she is not doing better. She was watching Backyardigans on the TV and what she was trying to sing, she couldnt say more than 2 words without needing to take a breath.

She is still eating fine, and her white blood cells and platelets are already going down a bit (still high, though). Here are some photos... This was this morning when I started noticing she wasnt better:

Here she is coloring in the couch right next to the bed, which is her favorite place to be:

And here she is after she was already on oxigen, while having lunch. She was having mashed sweet plantains and chicken.

First morning at the hospital

We had a good night last night.... She woke up several times to pee (because of the IV) and was also alert every time the nurses came for medicines, but in overall we had a good night... She insisted that I sleep with her, so I had to snugle with her in the hospital's bed.... My whole body hurts, as half of my body was out of the bed...

The doctor came to see her, and told me that she is not worse, but she is not better either, and that he hopes she is better by MONDAY!

She is handling it fine, and already understands that the meds are going thought the tube and that they dont need to inyect her again. They may send her for new blood work, though, but that is a whole different deal. Her white cells are SUPER HIGH... They are suppose to be between 4,500 and 10,000, and as of yesterday she had 25,900. Her platelets are also high... They are suppose to be between 150,000 and 400,000 and they were 417,000 yesterday.

I will update if she gets another blood work today.... I also may take some pictures and post them....

Thanks for your prayers, and I will answer emails and comments when I get a bit more of time...

....and Happy Valentine's Day to you all!

More prayers.... She is hospitalized!

Just a quick post to say that Mia is hospitalized. Not related to what happened yesterday, but because of the asthma that she has since Sunday.... She was diagnosed with Bronchopneumonia. Im in a different floor right now as it is the only floor with internet, but I wanted to ask you guys for prayers, and alert my customers that I wont be working this weekend....

Hubby will be going home in a bit with Gaby and Mimi, and I will be staying here with Mia.

Thanks for the prayers and good thoughts in advance!
