Update

The chest x-rays came back last night....Pneumonia. They can not treat her with steroids, as it interferes with tissue repair (ie skin grafts). So, for now, it's breathing treatments and antibiotics. We have to stay until at least Saturday. The weather meant to be nasty today and tomorrow, so it may not have been possible for us to get home anyhow. She sleeping less and we're starting to see her personality reappear today, which are good signs...

Oh. I'm so sorry she's sick. That has to make it worse. But at least you are there where they can treat her. Love you. (If you are bored...got to Susan's blog - linked on mine (Mooney Bunch)...and see the Friends reunion post. Susan, Melanie Harris, Kristy & I met for lunch this week).

Hi Carrie, I'm so sorry to hear that finley has pneumonia! We missed you last week, but I'm excited to hear that you Finley is getting the surgeries she needs. Thanks for taking the time to post on her progress. Our prayers are with you and your family!
