Still fighting

Michalla had a rough night. There was not enough oxygen in her blood so at 3 am she is throwing up and chest X-rays are being performed.  Her breathing is under control now on the c pap. She is having some kidney issues but the biggest concern is still the fungus in her lungs and getting her so she can eventually breathe on her own.  They also found some new viruses. They think it is too big of a risk to treat them right now in her condition but they are having a meeting with the infectious disease team at the U to decide what to do. Michallas counts continue to rise but the docs say it is too soon to tell if they will be able to cure the fungus. Keeping fingers crossed. Will be in ICU at least until next week, maybe longer.
