Bumpy Day

Day 27

Emma had a few more bumps along the road today.  She was de-satting a lot throughout the day, and her glucose levels were a little high.  Also, her urine output was a little lower than normal.  The doctors did some bloodwork to see if she had an infection, which it doesn't look like she has.  Her white blood cell count is normal and it looks like her kidneys are functioning well.  She was given a bolus of saline just to increase her urine output and ensure everything was working.  Since her hermatocrit levels were a little low, she was given another blood transfusion.  This could be the reason behind all of her other symptoms, so we'll see how she is doing tomorrow.  Keep those prayers coming!
