6-20 #1



I know it's time for an update when I start to get text messages more frequently. There isn't a whole lot to update on today. She's hanging out and trying o rest up for another extubation attempt in few days. She's been started on some new meds (one to lower bicarb, one to treat pseudomonas in her lungs) and has gotten an increased dose of the Sildenafil which treats the pulmonary hypertension. She's responded well to it but could use a little more help. Her spasms have been fewer and more far between as have her desats so we are pleased. It's all such a delicate balance that it feels like it could tip over at any second. Kinda scary.

Specific prayer
-healing for Penny's lungs
-clarity of what she needs
-wisdom for the doctors and nurses
-protection from discouragement for her family
