Livie had a really bad night last night. She coded (stopped breathing) this morning, they had to bag her (with the bag and mask.) She is on oxygen right now and she still can't keep her SATs up. She has had a continuous fever, she just can't seem to break it. Her white cell count is elevated (indicating an infection somewhere) we still don't know where. Alyvia had a chest X-ray last night and she does have a little bit of fluid in one of her lungs. So hopefully whatever she has doesn't go to her lungs. Her lungs are still really weak.
Right now, Livie has quite a few doctors working with her trying to figure out whats going on. She has had her blood, urine, and the back of her throat cultured, we are waiting for those results. Today Alyvia will have another CT scan to make sure there isn't anything going on in her brain that we need to be worried about.
