Just saw the cardiologist and his words were, "this is the best case scenario for this morning." Praise God!! Avelyn's numbers are looking better as far as her heart goes; heart rate is less (between 110 and 120--where they want it) and blood pressure is less as well.--The medicine (beta blocker propranolol) is doing what they were hoping for. Also Ave's O2 sats are better with less O2% overall. They did have to bump up her O2% a bit when we were turning her earlier; this is bc she is so uncomfortable and gets upset when we move her to a different postion. They have to move her to keep shifting her fluid, but it's just so uncomfortable for her. :( So overall a better day thus far. Since stopping the lasix she isn't peeing as much and she actually gained about 4 oz, so please start 'praying for pee' again and that she will keep getting rid of the fluid in her lungs and on her body without the Lasix as we have shifted the focus more to her heart. Thank u!! And thank u so much for lifting us up in prayer since all this started--especially the past 24 hours. I know I have needed it and I am feeling more of God's peace today. Most of all keep praying for our baby girl. Thank u!!!
