Creeping by

Today seems to be creeping by. It took about 10 hours to get to noon...from 8 am and now its only 4:50...long days. usually in hospitals I lose track of time and everything speeds up, but today thta is not the case. I thought since it was Sunday we would be seeing some friends. But I think the flu scared everyone away. I understand. Kathy did stop by and we got her into a mask right away. Its nice to see a friendly face...even if it is just the eyes! (thanks kathy)

Livi's breathing has been harder today. she is laboring a lot to keep her oxygen levels up. She is is still 98-100% but she is breathing about 60-65 times a minute. That is not good. They are going to have the respitory theripist come and give her a breathing treatment and then we'll see what happens. They also upped her oxygen through her nose. She doesn't like having the breathing tube on but it helps her. So far today she hasn't pulled out her port access and being confined to the room hasn't made her bonkers...mainly because she's tired and not feeling great. She did have a great morning playing with Gigi and Grandpa on the floor. We got out all her toys and played. Then we painted. She was laughing and having a good time. She may have just overexerted herself this AM and that is why the breathing is harder now.

Please pray her lungs stay clear (the fluid is gone! just not as open as it should be) pray that everything opens up and she doesn't have to work so hard to breath. Pray that this is just run of the mill pnemonia and she will get better really soon. Pray that we can go home. Pray for my mom..she has a cold and so she can't stay with us right now. She might get someone sick and I think its hard for her. she is going to go back to our house. Pray no one else gets sick or they'll have to go home too. Thanks.
