Hannah in Surgery

Right now Hannah is having her line removed. Both our doctor here & the doctor at NIH just thought to take it out rather than waiting for the blood cultures to come back.

The surgeon is so wonderful & I am so thankful he got Hannah added to the busy OR schedule for this afternoon. Hannah waved good-bye & was as cheery as ever when she went off to the OR. Just fine with her -- she is just so happy that now she can go swimming with Lily & Meredith this coming weekend in Phoenix.

Hannah spent much of the night shaking like a leaf & cranking up fevers in the 104's. She did get to 105 a couple of times ... we are really hoping to not set any more records. As she went to surgery her temp was 104.8.

Hopefully getting her line removed & being on IV antibiotics will clear things up & she can get back to her normal life of 2010.

I will update tonight but for now line is coming out & we are hoping the fevers will come down.

Thanks for the prayers & encouraging messages today!

All God's best --

  2. When you said in the last post about the fever, the first thing I thought was...does she still have her PIC line in? Well we will be praying that Hannah's removal of the line goes well and the antibiotics can kick in so she can be home and swimming with baby sis:)
    Hugs,
