The good news fairy
Today is another good day.
Guess what?
ARIA PEED and there is NO dialysis today- why ?  Cause she doesn’t need it.  Yesterday was a break because of her birthday and we asked for it knowing that things would go wonky (her labs- electrolytes and kidney numbers)  But overnight they didn’t and she peed out 46mls of wee/pee and another 20mls now.
We will probably have it tomorrow but thats ok- Aria is moving in the right direction.
Aria is currently trialing 2 hours three times a day on no vent but 26% 02. Â You and I breath room air which is 21%. Â We tried capping off her trach and she didn’t do awful but still needs a bit more time. Â Her o2 stats dropped to low 90s. Â But on the 26% she sits nicely at 100- perfect.
Do you know a month ago they were buzzing around with an oscillator!!!!  Aria was paralyzed and on full serious vent support- now they are trying her on room air- breathing by herself?  This is HUGE.
I told our nurse today she was the good news fairy when she updated me.  Nothing magically about this though- GOD IS GOOD.
