Peanut is on her way home right now. We are all very glad. The doctors are going to have a pow wow on Monday to talk about what the next steps will be.

Jul 08 Blood Pressure Leakage Jul 08

Posted by Luke under Hospital | 0comment

They did a red blood cell tag and that didn’t show anything. This morning they did a scope down her throat and up her bum. They did find many places where blood was oozing out and into the stomach and into the intestine. There could be more leaking up where they connected the new liver. The plan as of now is to start her on some medicine for blood pressure with the hope that that will relieve some pressure in the veins and they won’t ooze. If that doesn’t work they would have to do surgery and put a shunt in to relieve the blood pressure.

She is on and off grumpy all day which is understandable since they stop her from eating all the time and have to keep poking her for blood samples. She does keep her fun quirks about her. She loves to hook and unhook all the cords to her when she goes potty. She makes things for Grandmas and cousins too.

I hope we can get some sort of fix with this blood pressure soon. It’s draining on both MaKayle and my nerves.

Many of you might have heard already but most of you probably haven’t heard that Kaisa has been back in the hospital. MaKayle brought her in Thursday evening. It is for the same reason we have been here before. She keeps having those bloody stools. They have done the same tests as always and haven’t really seen anything. Tomorrow she will get scoped. She was still pooping blood this afternoon so we are hoping that tomorrow isn’t to late and they will still be able to see something. We will post more as we know more. As as always thanks for all your prayers.
