Sadie Long
Sadie had a really rough night. She hasn't slept through the night since the transplant and we were hoping she'd be able to get some rest last night, but she was up in pain most of the night.
They found that Sadie's lungs are retaining fluid, they were able to get her out of bed and she walked about 20 feet yesterday and she's started to see respiratory therapy every four hours. Her lungs were slightly less filled this morning but they still had a good amount of fluid in them.Β
Sadie's entire body is also retaining fluid and her kidneys aren't doing their job of detoxing her body and expelling the fluid, there have been several attempts to get them to "wake up" again via medication, but so far nothing has had a good effect. While she was able to walk down the hall yesterday she could hardly stand up today.Β
They've decided to start her on dialysis, place a third chest tube, and place a new PICC line to replace her IJ lines. She's currently under heavy sedation for the procedures.Β
Please pray. It's incredibly difficult to watch her be in so much pain and having to fight through this.Β
