They found pockets of fluid in Feliz's belly and some in her lungs. They extracted as much as try could and believe they fluid is the reason for her elevated white blood cell count, so they are giving her an antibiotic that can only be administered through IV, while they wait for the culture to grow and then they will know what kind of infection it is and if an OTC antibiotic can be given. This will be Monday that they will get the results of the culture back. They only just told us all of this after Feliz decided she wanted to leave AMA. It always seems that she comes in for one thing only for them to find something(s) else wrong with her after they solve that problem. They act like she's only here for observation and that there's no real risk for her UNTIL we drops the AMA threat on them, then they show concern for her health. I can't say either one of us likes any part of Baylir Irving, besides the Neonatal ICU which has always taken great care of our babies.
Feliz is having a hard time as is to be expected when you're in and out of the hospital what seems like ever other week. She feels she's lost so much time apart from Emily the past year and is ready to stop coming here. She knows she can't honestly do that, but at times she's so defeated and so am I. I can't pull her out of these funks sometimes, but sometimes I can, so I try every time.
Luckily my brother Mark and sis-in-law Amber are keeping Em for the weekend so I can stay at the hospital all day today and hopefully a good amount of tomorrow in the hopes to help the time go by easier and of course for the company and support. At least we get to see Olivia anytime we want.
I'm still believing that these posts will be looked back on as a strong testimony of God's faithfulness.
Thanks for your continued prayers. We love you all.
