Ariana has been having a hard time with quite a few things. She continues to have trouble breathing and maintaining her oxygen levels consistent throughout the day. She had to get blood transfusions 3 days in a row, they stopped her feedings because she was not able to tolerate them, she's on antibiotics because they think there may be an infection, she just started medication for her low blood pressure, they are checking her for a heart murmur again, as they suspect there still may be one there, even though they said it was taken care of with the last treatment, while she's on the oscillator she's being sedated to keep her calm since it's constantly shaking her but it has caused her to swell because she's not moving around like before.
Dad has gotten better with her episodes - when her oxygen drops. She had one that lasted what seemed like forever, he remained calm from beginning to end. The doctor recommended getting her books and reading to her, I read to her the other day and she seemed so calm and sucked on her pacifier while I read - it was really cute.
Keep the prayers coming.

Kari, I so enjoyed talking to you last night. I LOVE your blog and how you are seeing God in this whole process. The calmness you have in these circumstances is an obvious answer to many prayers. I love the picture you have posted with Ariana's eyes open! I love how you have a little snapshot of your love story with Carlos on the side, it seems like he is the perfect man for you and what an awesome daddy he is! I hope to get to know you more and would love to help out in any way I can! Love, Julie
