Rhinovirus and…….
Well so far we know for sure that Aria has rhinovirus or the common cold. The question is if there is something else as well or is Aria just super vulnerable to colds because of her chronic lung disease and immuno-suppression?
We’ve made some gains today with her breathing, treatments are less often and the oxygen support is lower but she is still on quite a bit of help.
Tomorrow we will learn if there are any bacterial components to her illness.
The plan for us as always in hospital admissions is find out what needs to happen for Aria to get home and then chase that like a pack of wild dogs. At the moment that consists of 8 hourly treatments (currently 4 hourly) and ideally no oxygen during day and only 1/2 a litre at night (which would be as good as she ever was at home). We are in negotiation on the last part but we can live with the first part. Please pray that Aria would progress towards those outcomes, we would love to have her home again by or during the weekend.

Once I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a remark is added I get four emails with the identical comment. Is there any means you may remove me from that service? Thanks!
