Maylee

A lot of you know that after a two week battle of fever and headaches (six dr appointments later), Maylee was admitted into Cook Children's in FW last night with bacterial spinal meningitis. It is not the meningoccocal meningitis which is the worst one. She had a pretty rough morning as they were having a hard time getting a vein. After many tries they decided to sedate her and do a pic line (a direct line to the heart through an artery). Looks like she will be on iv antibiotics for 2-3 weeks. She has slept a lot today as she was pretty sedated. Dr said common risks are hearing loss, stroke and seizures. She has not shown any of these signs. She has been stable and we pray she continues to stabilize without any complications. We cannot express our gratitude and appreciation for all your prayers, concerns and willingness to help in any way. Please just continue to pray for healing without any complications. Thank you prayer warriors. I'll try to post updates to this blog as often as I can.

Thanks for the update Leigh Anne. I'm so glad to hear it wasn't the Meningococcal version. Let's pray that's the first of MUCH more good news to follow!

We continue to pray for our sweet little friend, and can't way to see her healthy and strong VERY soon!
