INFECTION !

Well Kaidence's infection site is worse than I think we all originally thought. The surgeon and the team came in this afternoon and cleaned out everything. This is not good for Kaidence and she is in a very serious situation according to the surgeon. We knew that infection would be a possibility but that it was also the one thing that would be most dangerous for her.The good thing is that the doctors started her on antibiotics days ago when her WBC started to rise. I think that has slown down the infection so we are hoping that it is not in her blood or traveling up the cannula and into the heart. Her WBC was actually down from this morning as well as her CRP. She is on several heavy duty antibiotics and they will fight the infection with everything that they can. She will have the infection site scrubbed with antibiotics daily. This is very painful for Kaidence so they intibated her again so they can give her heavy sedation for the cleaning everyday. That means she can no longer cry and that I can no longer hold her.

Once again, Please pray for little Kaidence!!!!
