Her blood counts continue to drop and as a result her heart rate is rising and her breathing is getting rapid and more shallow. She is scheduled for a red blood transfusion tonight in an effort to remedy that situation.
Her pneumonia is still bad and her ear infections are still really bad, but drugs are flowing freely from several IV pumps attached to her port and hopefully things will start to turn around soon. Despite everything, Katie has remained in good spirtits for most of this latest hospitalization.
Josh and I came home tonight to get a few things done around the house. I have plumbing issues waiting for me in the morning, web site work that needs to be done and we are expecting a delivery of live baby chickens in the next day or so. We will be home for a couple of days before going back to Burlington and relieving Amy.
