Ariana has continued to improve this week. They are continuing her antibiotics for another 3 days, which she's been on for her stomach/intestine infection. She has a line in her stomach which they plan on taking out tomorrow, this is the one they give her transfusions from, which they have given her a lot of them. The line in her stomach has been in for over 2 wks now and is a source for infection, so they need to take it out. So they will put a line in her wrist so they have another area to give her blood. Her other wrist has her picc line and one leg has a line for her thyroid medicine, which they started her on yesterday. So she has one little leg free of lines. We continue to trust soon she will be free of all these lines, healthy, strong, and in our arms.
She continues to be sedated but is still very active, so they may give another medicine to get her to calm down more. She's had many wet diapers this morning, which is good, she's getting rid of all the fluid she's holding. She weighed around 2lb 3oz last night and that's going from 1lb 9oz a few nights ago...and she hasn't been fed - so with the wet diapers some of the swelling should come down.
She's getting there slowly - God's teaching us some serious patience!
