Home - Almost

We were packed up and ready to go at 6:30.  The PA that has been helping us came in at 4:30 and told us we should be able to go at 6:30 when Alisa's blood transfusion was finished.

At 6:25 he showed up, obviously distressed.  He had been on the phone for 2 hours talking to the pulmonary doctors and the radiologists trying to determine how concerned they are about what they found on the chest CT scan.

They found a little bit of inflammation in her upper right lobe.  They don't know why after 5 days of strong antibiotics she would still have an infection.  It possibly explains why she is still having fevers. They are going to keep her here overnight and possibly do a bronchoscopy in the morning to see what is going on.

Maybe tomorrow.

  8. Thank you thank you for the daily updates. My heart hurts for all your family is going through. What an emotional and physical roller coaster! I can't imagine how hard this had been. Still in our prayers daily. My 12 year old prays for Alisa every night and asks me for updates. I'm sure there are many many more who are praying for you and your family that you are not even aware of. Hopefully the power of prayer is comforting you during this time! Love you guys!
