ha ha I'm not even sure what day it is. I think it's the 20th now of January. IT's technically the 20th, got awoken around 1 am to come to the hospital. Jeremy is out calling people now to let them know she is stable. They called us to tell us that they were bringing her down to the PICU. Her heartrate was back to 200's, her temperature was 106, and her breathing had increased. She is having help with the non-invasive mask. Her heartrate is back down to 140's and her blood pressure is good. They said that she was very pale, and mottling, (marbling looking skin). They have given her sedation meds to relax her. I think they are going to do another ECHO later today. I will not be able to go home to get the kids, it's so hard for them to be in the PICU, and hard to see her like this. She is finally getting some much needed sleep!
Recap of what's been goin on the last few days: Haley hasnt slept since Monday. She slept Monday night but since then only slept a few hours here and there. Temps off and on, and very irritable. It is now Friday (officially in the wee hours of the morning). Thursday she was given some doses of morphine and that would help calm her down, but not really sleeping. They also decided to start a med to help calm her brain down. She was given one dose of that, but said it would be several doses before we would know if it really worked. The morphine dose given around midnight apparently make her have to have more oxygen and her breathing still was increased and her heartrate was still high so they brought us to the PICU.
