I apologize for not having a chance to update everyone sooner. I am not able to update the website from my cell phone and this is the first day I've had access to a computer. So, here's a quick recap of the weekend. Friday we had the catheterization, which showed nothing different or new with her heart function. There was no area of narrowing to open up. They then moved Wesleigh Anne to ICU for a brief time and on Saturday morning we moved to step-down. Wesleigh Anne had an uneventful weekend and it was looking like all we were going need was a procedure to reduce her reflux. Then Monday morning happened....around 6 am, Wesleigh Anne started fussing and was inconsolable. Her temperature had gone up to 106.4 and she was having a very hard time breathing. We got her calmed down and her fever down and then the decision was made that she could stay in step-down. We sent tests for flu and RSV and proceeded to wait and watch. Well, she did great for the rest of Monday. This morning around 6 am again, Wesleigh Anne did the same thing. She became inconsolable and her temp went up. She was also struggling to breathe again. The decision was then made to move her to ICU to be more closely monitored until we know exactly what's going on. The two big scenarios are that we are pretty sure Wesleigh Anne aspirated (food that she spit up when down in her lungs) and got pneumonia...there's also a strong chance that she has swine flu. They are testing for both and treating her as if she has both at this point. Please continue to pray for her healing. Thanks!!!
