9-30-09 Ally doing better in hospital

Just a super quick update since I’m pretty tired and may take a short nap.

Ally is doing better and now has lots of air moving in her left lung. Her right lung has stayed good. No more fevers since being admitted. Rapid flu and RSV tests came back negative, but we are still waiting on the others. We have gone to breathing treatments every 4 hours and will be switching to her home bi-pap without any oxygen. She is on her bi-pap breathing machine 24/7 as she is very tired needs the energy to get better. Things are going smoothly at the hospital.

There is hopes we might even get to go home on Thursday or Friday and that was without me even pushing it. I think it might just be a cold that can run its coarse at home with some higher bi-pap settings and extra treatments (as long as she doesn’t collapse a lung again). I will see how Ally does tonight and tomorrow morning, as we are still using o2 during treatments as a buffer. I don’t want her to catch any germs at the hospital, but I also don’t want to go home and come right back.

Thanks so much for all the prayers and well wishes.
My faith is in god to help Ally and give us the strength to get through these tougher times.

Check out the below amazing, short video that inspired me with tears, joy and hope. Ally also does this for me daily. We can learn so much from others who have disabilities. Hope you’ll take 3 minutes to be inspired too…
(hope this works)
