They haven't found any major infection yet, but her white blood cell count is slightly elevated. Waiting for rounds and see what they want to do.
10:00 Rounds just finished. They are going to do a bunch of tests, x-ray, blood work, ultrasound, and a bunch of other stuff I don't understand. We did have all the major doctors here, Berstein, Ashwin, Katz, nurses, and 5-6 other people. They are all clearly concerned and want to figure this out. It is this kind of stuff that will suspend her from the transplant list. We will keep you informed.
10:45 X-ray done. Shows some fluid on her right side. They are going to give her some IV Lasix to pull the fluid off (make her pee a whole bunch). Other than that test, watch and treat. This is what we trust them for. This is what we pray for.
On a lighter note. Sierra, Megan and Hunter are off to school. Stacy said there was a sea of bicycles going down Newell avenue towards Jordan Middle School. 100's of bikes everywhere. Oh the stories our daughters and son will tell.
These last 2 pictures are for the Doctors. They want to see a comparison between dressing changes to look for infection. These 2 pictures are 4 days apart. Berstein thinks there may be some more inflammation on the left side.

Hi Jason ans Stacy, What an ordeal---I know---it's an understatement right? Dale and I have all of you in our daily prayers. Linsay draws strength and courage from you. I know you know that. I know that you and Stacy also know how important it is to be there for each other as well as for your kiddos. Hang in there my friend.
Dale and I were in Sumpter this past weekend. Cache Valley is nice but its no Baker Valley or Sumpter Valley. Looking forward to the day when you and your entire clan can be back home and Lindsay and Sierra can do that trek together. Much Love and prayers, The Olsens
Jason & Stacy,
Sorry to hear Lindsey is having these complications. I'm thinking about all of you. Thank you for the blog updates. It's so nice to be able to pop online and see how the kids are doing.

I keep thinking Lindsey's shoulder is sore from the basketball she played the other day. Tell her when she returns to Powder we'll have to get her shooting arm back into shape and she can whoop up on those boys like Reece and Clay! Girl power!
I can't wait to hear about the kids' new adventures at their new schools. So fun and exciting.
Hugs to you all and tell Lindsey Lou when school starts we'd like to skype with her.
We pray every day for you and your family! Lindsey is such a trooper! Much love and prayers coming your way! Love, the Knowles family.
our prayers are going your way. we want good news to report at the auction tomorrow. Love from the thompsons
I know that we don't know each other, but I just wanted you to know I think about your family and children often. You and your family are in my prayers. What troopers you all are! Hang in there and know that there are so many cheering you all on and praying for you every step of the way!
Sure hope to hear that the fever is gone soon and all feel better. Just want you to know that through the good days and bad, we are all still here hoping and praying the best for all of you, and the (hopefully soon) donor family.
