Keeping the foot off the gas

Brenya has been putting out more urine and her swelling has gone down. Some clots have shown up on her ECMO which are not getting any bigger but she has one that is in her body that is really small and shouldn't be a problem. However the doctors want to change out some of the tubing to make sure it doesn't become a problem. They tried to do so last night but she had a little bit of a fit about it. Her O2 saturation went down and so they decided to hold off until her lungs are cleaned out again. They have begun thinking about doing the surgery to repair the hernia but we don't have a set date yet. Right now we are just enjoying the fact that she is stable and waiting to see how her lungs are over the next couple of days. So we are just taking it nice and slow. We will post some pictures soon and let you guys know when we get more news. Thanks for all your help!
