Hi everyone, I am excited to say that Lexi is improving. Thank you so much for all of your concern and prayers. We go to UNC on Tues for a recheck and to decide how long before we can take her PICC out. Her cough is still pretty bad, but they assured me that this was common and a very good thing. It means that the antibiotic is breaking up the infection in her chest. Our next obstacle is to see an ENT to check Lexi's sinuses. While performing her Bronchoscopy, the doctors looked up the back of her throat and into her nose. They observed some enlargement of her adnoids and a lot of thick secretions in her nose and sinuses. They are concerned that this may be part of her cough problem and possibly causing some of the lingering infection in her lungs. Really not looking forward to possible sinus surgery, but you all know me. Whatever keeps her healthy...lets do it and do it fast.
There a lot of other things that I am dealing with and need your prayers. This situation has been going on for years, but has progressively gotten worse. I am having a hard time dealing with this along with other things. Maybe it is the stress and little sleep that make me more emotional some days. I try not to feel sorry for myself because I know so many people have a lot more problems than us. Some days I am happy, some days sad, some days angry, but most days I am thankful...very, very thankful:) I know everyone has those days....
I feel like God wanted me to create this blog to glorify Him, but I also wanted to do this to keep family and friends updated, and an outlet for me to express my emotions.
With that said, do not be suprised if every now and then you see a crazy rant:)
Love you all.
