A GOOD DAY!!!!!!

I know, I should have posted long ago. The truth is that Kaidence looks so much better and therefore I have been BUSY! Yesterday she had another treatment on her blood. This time everything went much smoother. She started waking up a little more yesterday. She had a very hard time coming off the narcotics and was having some pretty bad night terrors (med side effect). She had no idea who Mike and I were, yet she was yelling for mama and dad. Her blood sugar is getting better and they have taken her off the insulin. As of midnight, Kaidence was taken off the Milrinone (heart failure med that helps your heart squeeze). Her echo today looked the same as 2 days ago, but the doc is happy with that because the one 2 days ago she was on the milrinone and today she wasn't. Therefore, her heart seems to slowly be getting better.

Today, Kaidence is more like herself. She looks pretty dang good in fact. Many are relieved at how Kaidence is turning around. They all said they were very worried. Some nurses called to check on her as well over the weekend. I am glad she is so loved and cared for.

Today we cleaned all the tape marks off her, gave her a bath, did her hair, painted her toes, she has even had a little to eat. She is still very weak and has a hard time walking a few feet, but she will get there. Her poor body is so bruised from trying to get central line access. She does have some issues with the skin around a line that they are closely watching for infection.

So the plan is to do her blood dialysis in the morning. Treatments will continue this week. She will then have another heart cath on Monday to see if the treatment is doing what it should. she will then have 2 days of IVIG treatment.

That's about it for the day. Lets just hope these treatments are working. Thank You for the prayers, if you could see what my eyes have seen this last week... you would never doubt that prayers are heard. I am amazed by her turn around.
