Tonight

She is currently sleeping peacefully. Her cardiologist team wants her to be off oxygen because she has pulmonary edema and that can make it worse, but she still needs just a whisper (100mL) in order to keep her O2 stats over 80%. They lost the iv in her right foot. They couldn't place one in her right hand because that was where the first iv was that was placed in Boone and it blew on the way here Friday. The left hand blew on the attempt to flush on the way here. The left foot had been poked to bruising from blood draws. They attempted to place on in her head but couldn't so they placed a central line in her neck. She had to be deep suctioned again shortly before 7pm. Matthew and Niya had to go back to home because of school but I am staying here so she has an advocate and keeping Matthew up to date with frequent phone calls, texting, and FaceTime.
