Is Elle ever coming home????????????????????






This hospital stay seems to be taking FOREVER.....I have not got the full update yet as Paul only got there after 2pm this afternoon. He is on holidays but had to go into work for awhile today. Elle had a good weekend. She is way more awake and smiling, laughing and quite happy. She has been looking better and better since late Thursday. Her blood work is still not great. Her white blood cell count is still VERY low. Its around 1.9 and normal is 5-15 so again this is making her immune system very vulnerable to infection so we are still gowning and masking to protect her from any sickness out there.....Red blood cells are also very low. Somewhere around 1.79 normal being 4-5.2. Her hemoglobin was up yesterday at around mid 70's normal being 115-155. Paul just got home and has said that her blood work was up alittle today so they are hoping that all her numbers are due to some kinda virus and they will return on their own.....guess we will see.

Kaden had a rough night coughing and choking so today he is very tired and not so happy!!!

What a roller coaster you are on - so many ups and downs - it must be very draining emotionally. Really glad to hear that Elle is doing better and great to see her smiling in the picture. Hope she is able to come home soon and that Kaden gets over his cough quickly.
