Sunday, May 17, 2009 Today's Visit

We went to see Shailee today, and she is still stable and doing ok other then the pneumonia but it isn't as bad this time around. Bill got to hold her for a little while today but she started getting annoyed and wouldn't settle down so they had to put her back in her bed, but at least he still got to hold her for a while. she is still having alot of secretions, but they are managed. they had to remove her pic line today b/c i noticed some dried up pussy stuff and i pulled it back and her skin looked raw like the dressing was rubbing on her arm wrong, but it turns out she was having a reaction to the adhesive on the pic line so they removed it and placed a regular iv in her other hand soley for the purpose of giving her the antibiotics she is taking right now, but once they are done they will remove the iv. i guess it was a good thing that i noticed that on her arm since they didn't know it was there yet. they are treating the area with antibiotic ointment as well to clear it all up. her feeds are up to 57ml now and she is still tolerating them well. other then that there have been no changes. here is the pic from today and i will update more tomorrow.
