My God, what a strong little girl she is. She just has to feel all the positive vibes and prayers going out to her at this time. This little community never ceases to amaze me. Here we are, people from all over the world, all walks of life, coming together to pray for this precious life that we've never met. It makes me so proud to be part of Pet Talk.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

Sam's dressing change went fine;
she was back in her room by 8:00 am --
it was an early morning for the plastic surgery team.
He plans on another dressing change Monday or Tuesday.
He said @85% of the grafting has "taken";
he knew he'd have a little to redo, and
then some small spots to take care of.
Her right hand has fared better than her left,
and the surgeon feels she will have a functional right hand;
she lost some fingers on the left, though.
All in all, from a plastics standpoint, things are looking okay.
Her vitals remain stable, and she is resting comfortably right now.
Thanks,
Jessica

I think about this child and I find myself just staring out into space, not focused on anything in particular.
Many heartfelt prayers are being said for this precious little girl and her parents.
And again: Sammy our thoughts are with you. Daily. Hourly......
Together we'll pull through.
Poor baby. I am thinking of her everyday, hoping she'll heal sooner.

I just finished reading all the updates I missed while I was away this past week. So glad to hear things are slowly improving. I smiled when I read about Sammy's pigtails. How cute. I continue to pray for her every single day. She is such a miracle child. Hang in there little Sammy, and keep getting better! Kisses to you, and hugs to your mommy, Auntie Johanna, and to the rest of your family too!
This morning's update from the CarePages:
23 June 06, 2005 at 10:12 AM EDT
Sam had some difficulties over the weekend, but as to the exact cause, nobody's sure. She spiked a temp a couple of times, but they were able to bring it down quickly; she also had some sort of respiratory thing going on--she was breathing quite heavily for some reason. The doctors checked around, looking for the usual causes, but found nothing different/unusual...it's quite puzzling. A new infection setting in is always a possibility--and a fear--but she's on several strong antibiotics. Her vitals otherwise are stable enough. They used paralysis to stop her labored breathing, and to just let the vent do it for her, and that seemed to help, and they'll take her off the paralyzing today, and see how she does. She will have a dressing change either today or tomorrow; at this point, the plastics team thinks it's too early to insert the catheter for dialysis--they want to insert one in the abdomen, but the skin there isn't healed enough, so they will likely have to wait. She had some production on her own over the weekend, but not much since, so we don't know the full story on that. These ups and downs are expected along the way; Sam's journey will be a lengthy one. It has been one month today; it feels like a year. It's a miracle she's made it to this point, so please keep praying for the miracle to continue.
Thanks,
Jessica
Of course, Sammy and her family are still in our prayers! Kisses to her from us!
More gentle hugs for Sammy.
