Well, since it's me (Rachael) writing, this short update will probably get too detailed and end up being long, but I have to hurry because I have to take Willow to get his shots!! =)
Okay.. Mia is doing GREAT!! Praise the Lord!! She was so sick just 10 days ago - it's such a miracle that she's come through this especially since we almost lost her three days in a row.
She's ready to get moved back to Children's Recovery Center today! The paramedics came yesterday to move her, but when they loaded her on the stretcher her co2 was through the roof. They drew a blood gas to see if the machine was reading it correctly - and it was. 104. It should be in the 30's. They called Dr. Silva to see if they still wanted her moved, but he decided it'd be better to keep her in the hospital. Angela, the night nurse (who is also the nurse who got her from the ER) was so excited to have Mia one last time!! =) So were we... Angela's my favorite!
We think her co2 went up because the guys didn't know how to work the home vent, so something weird happened that they didn't set it so it would give her breaths, just pressure, so she was breathing on her own (just not very well). Poor baby. =) This time they're going to get an RT from CRC to come and set up the home vent since that's what they use at CRC anyway. =) My idea!! I'm so smart. ;-) haha
We're doing well - Robert had to work at Beale AFB this week and next week for a few days, so he went up to Sacramento yesterday to look at houses with our realtor on his way up to Chico. They have one more house to look at on Wednesday on his way back down to San Jose, so we'll see which one he likes best. I wrote the last check to my friend last week, so know we're also going to have to order checks and have them sent over here so we can actually make an offer on a house!! All these little things you totally forget about - we should have grabbed another book of checks from home before moving out here! =)
Well... I think that's about it for now...
Thank you so much for praying! Love to you all!
