Sierra update #3

I apologize for the delay in updating. I was hoping to be able to update with Sierra's biopsy results. We will probably not know until tomorrow. However, they did take measurements of pressure in her valves or ventricles and normal is supposed to be 10, she measured 25. It was significantly higher and their pretty sure that is due to the rejection.

She may get out of the hospital tomorrow or the next day, however, they don't want her leaving California for AT LEAST 2 weeks. Unfortunately, she will miss the funnest last two weeks of school. She is bored crazy, but has bursts of energy that last for about an hour and then passes out with exhaustion. Jason has done a great job of taking her for a lot of walks to keep her busy but you can only walk the hospital so many times.

She is done with her IV treatments and they are waiting to see what those test show to know whether she needs more or not. Not a lot to update but we do at least know some kind of time frame. While she has been there she has gotten to see a couple of friends. Kevin who got a heart in February and had the exact same illness as Sierra (dialted ideopathic crdiomyopathy) and Noah who received a heart three weeks after Sierra.

I was planning on heading over to Cali on Saturday to switch guards, but Gage was sick last weekend and they don't want him around Sierra for awhile. So, we will see. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.

Sierra up at 5:50 AM ready to conquer the world.
