Feb 13, 2:30pm Unbelievable

So, no change with Lindsey. Still planning for 4:00. Right now she is pretty anxious but is playing Sorry with Allison from Child Life. The boys went to Michelle Hansen's to play and Megan is getting ready for her basketball game.

Sooooooo Sierra is getting admitted to the CVICU for high heart pressures. Yes, unbelievable! Stacy told me about a 1/2 hour ago. They want to admit her to keep an eye on her. Possible causes include cellular rejection, antibody rejection, fluid around the heart, issues with her coronary arteries, or something else??!! They have done a rush on the biopsy results. If she is in rejection, they will start steroids, if it is antibodies, then I don't know what they will do in addition to IVIG. Maybe she will get Plasma Pheresis too.  Ain't that just flippin' dandy!

So that means Lindsey and Sierra will both be in the CVICU for a time.  When Stacy told me I felt weak and nauseous. Remember those highs and lows. How about a bit of both on the same day! How in the world did we ever get into this situation!  Keep the faith. God has a plan and knows each one of us.
