"determine if continuance of care is warranted" - does that mean if they decide no, they "unplug" her?!   |

12/2Update Labs showed that the B cells have slightly decreased and it appears they are not regenerating which is good news. Tomorrow the medical team will see if the 5 days spent on ECMO allowed Addy;'s heart to rest enough to resume functioning. They will try to take her off ECMO tomorrow which will determine the future course of action. ECMO is not a long term fix and either her heart will take over or ...... praying that the medications and therapies have worked and Addy can function without assistance from heart/lung. Please pray. Her parents are so appreciative of all good thoughts, positive energy and prayers coming from all around the world. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Today;'s echo shows no change since last week, which is disappointing. They added a new drug to try to eliminate the B cells. The treatment being used didn't help eliminate the antibodies. So the plan now is to try a new drug and hope that works. Still trying, but the longer on ECMO the higher the risk of stroke and blood clot. She needs prayers that her heart will improve. mentioned that three weeks ago my friend's daughter got a heart transplant. She has been on ECMO (bypass ) for four days. They tried to wean her and it did not work. Today the lab results come back stating whether the drug therapy has flushed antibodies from her system. Today will determine whether or not continuance of care is warranted. Please pray that Addy's body has healed and that she will continue to fight rejection and eventually come home. Thank you. How old is she? My daughter was on ECMO after her birth due to Muconium Aspiration. You can PM me if you'd like. |

Poor darling. Many prayers for Addy and her family. They must be exhausted with the stress and worry. Glad to hear there is some forward progress.
