Well it looks like I caught the virus that Cole had and now Kaitlyn seems to have caught it too. She had a fever last night and her throat/voice sounds hoarse. Her hospice nurse came by this morning to check on her and to do a toe prick to check her blood counts. With viruses, her platelet count typically drops. If they get too low, she may need a blood transfusion. Her lungs sound clear, as of now, which is really good. Just praying that it doesn't put stress on her lungs and turn into viral pneumonia. That would be really dangerous for her.
On a good note, we increased her anti-seizure medication, Keppra, and it seems to be helping to decrease the amount and severity of episodes she has. We are up to 2.5 ml twice a day. Yesterday, she didn't have any and this morning she had a minor one! She is also smiling a bit more!
Please keep the prayers coming for our sweet girl. Thanks.
