A little more for Tuesday

A friend pointed out a few things I might not have mentioned but are important! Its so hard to hit every factor because there's sooo much going on! So if I've mentioned them I'm sorry, and if I haven't then here you go! I'm going to mobile update so can't look back to see what I put. Call me lazy, or sleep deprived.

Gabriella threw up monday night and her NG tube came with it, so they removed it. They also removed her oxygen today so she is tube free! Thank goodness!!

They started lovinox (sp?) in lieu of the Asprin last night. It is a bit stronger than the Aspirin and will be a twice a day injection for the next 6 months. They have a port in her belly to give the injection and the port lasts 7 days, so that's 14 less injections than she needs. She seems to be doing well, and this will not only help with the existing clot, but prevent further ones from forming.

And tonight after I updated, they completely turned off her Dopamine! Given she can maintain her bp tonight we might be at rehab by tomorrow!!! Praise God!

It sound like lots of good news in this bad event. Now will they move her up faster to get a heart? I just do not want any thing else to go wrong for her are your family. I hope she will start to speak and use her right arm more. God bless you. Thank you for the updates.
