another hurdle - Pneumonia

Trey developed pneumonia.  He is on antibiotics (through a new IV- used for medicines) - he still has his PICC line (for his other nutrients) in also.  The doctors are optimistic about Trey being able to fight it.  His WBC are up which indicate that his body is positively responding to attack the pneumonia.  The threat is if the bacteria spreads, especially if it spreads to his bloodstream.  He also received another blood transfusion.  

Trey did have a good night, and his counts were all good.  

Please continue in prayer for:
  • pneumonia to resolve quickly and without complication
  • Trey's counts to stay strong
  • the PICC line to stay without infection
  • Trey's continual growth & development
  • the family

oh, so still in my thoughts..brings back very fresh memories even though they are nearly 24 years old.....it is an extremely difficult place to suddenly be placed in....God is working......I'm so glad that they have such good friends and ones close at this time..and those other precious kids need so much too so they are not pushed aside as much as our older son was at the time......praying, Annette
