Update day #4 9/24/22







  
So big bummer but Braylee won't be getting her PICC today. Infectious disease wants to wait the full 48 hours before we insert.  So we're going for tomorrow so that she doesn't have to be NPO all day and not eat. We'd rather be safer than sorry. So we're here until tomorrow afternoon or Monday. 

Her cultures are growing 4 different types of bacteria 3 of which are rare. So they are having to do a sensitivity test on the cultures to see which antibiotics are the best to beat all of them. Of course we can't do anything simple. 🤦
The UMF biker chapter from all of the surrounding states came and held their annual rally at the hospital today. They raise a TON of money for the hospital to provide toys, Halloween outfits, and hospital supplies. It was so awesome to witness. Braylee got to do the drawing for their $1,000 gift card raffle and she got a cool nerf gun! Bonus she got to be outside for awhile!! 

We'll just make the most of these days and keep on keeping on!
