The respiratory dr. came by this afternoon - seems that Finley's lungs are full of "junk". She has been on a continuous breathing treatment for the past 4 hrs; has just had a chest xray; will receive additional breathing treatments every 2 hours throughout the night and he will look at her first thing in the morning. He thinks that she may have to stay until Saturday. Dr. Fearon thinks this might be a bit excessive so will discuss with him in the morning after they have both seen her. SO....hoping to leave early, turns out we have to stay at least one more night.

Everyone here has been extremely kind and helpful. We are on the non-infectious side of the peds. unit of the hospital, so basically it's us and the oncology patients.....it has been so humbling. Our worry, stress and heartache for our own baby seems so small compared to what these families are dealing with....I can't even imagine. We are so blessed.
