Thanks, everyone, for continued prayers and support
during this sudden and scary setback;
after nearly 4 months of constant and amazing improvement,
this has been a real blow,
but I'm happy to report that Sam is rallying back like the fighter she is.
She is stable, and they are beginning to wean her off the vent, and
will wean her off the sedatives as well.
It is quite possible that she will be awake by mid-week.
An initial concern was whether or not she had an immune system problem
that would lead to a second bout of septic shock in so short a time,
but nearly all the docs we've spoken to feel that the "hardware" (belly catheter
and esp. the PICC line) she came home with facilitated this infection,
and that in the absence of those, she likely would not have become ill again.
(Other facts against the immune system problem theory:
she survived a serious case of one of the worst pediatric infections, and
she remained healthy for the nearly 2 years she spent in a foreign orphanage.)
They still suggest a consult w/immunology, just to be safe.
The PICC has been removed, and the kidney team is going to come up with
another way to handle labs. Up to this point, they haven't needed dialysis;
we pray that this will continue.
She's a bit puffy, but that was inevitable, in light of the sepsis;
she is on a lasix drip to help pull liquids off and reduce swelling.
They will start running some nutrition through her line tonight,
and then we're on a wait-and-see.
They are hoping to extubate by Wednesday -- late tomorrow if we get really lucky.
She seems to be past the worst of it, and is working her way out --
there can't be a stronger little girl in all the world!!
I'll try to update each day --
please keep Sam in your prayers!!
Jessica
