>>1:38pm- 11/10/09- Good news! Ellie is off all her feeding tubes and breathing tubes. She should be going home in a week or two! >>5:19pm- 11/1/09- It may be weeks before we know if there has or hasn't been any negative impact on sweet Ellie's brain. Stay tuned and we will post any info we get as soon as we get it.
Ellie is off the vent!!! She is only on oxygen. She is back down to 9 lbs so that means she is definitely ridding her body of extra fluid. Some of her kidney function is still in question so that still needs lots of prayer. The biggest concern right now is little Ellie's brain. We are unsure of the details but know that her medical team is trying to establish how her little brain is functioning. So good news, and still more to pray about...
Ellie's mommy and daddy got to hold her for the first time. See the pic!
>>4:45pm- 10/10/09-
Ellie will be seeing a kidney specialist today. We'll update you as we get more information.
>>1:45pm- 10/9/09-
Ellie just had a very wet diaper!! Your prayers are working. Please keep on praying for more pee and also for her brain. More info to come.
>>7:30pm - 10/8/09 -
The doctors are still waiting for Ellie to pee. They need her to do this to get rid of the extra swelling. If they cannot get this under control, they may have to look at other options. So, pray for PEE!!! Also, Ellie's parents have family in town who are staying in hotels. They are in the Columbus, Ohio area. Anyone have any connections in this area? E-mail/FB/Twitter RTC.
>>5:00am - 10/8/09 -
No news yet.
>>8:20pm - 10/7/09 -
They really need her to pee.
Is this family far from home? Could they utilize Until Journey's End?
ReplyDeleteFrom Columbus. But you can see how UJE & RTC can work together.

Nate & Annie. My name is Kim and I'm in Illinois. 11 1/2 years ago, my son, Charlie (full term) kicked the cord and when my water broke, it was all blood. When they finally delivered him 4 hours later by c-section, he had lost 1/3 of his blood volume. His kidneys failed at day 2 and he went on peritoneal dialysis that day. He spent 4 weeks in NICU and came home at 4 weeks on dialysis. The expectation was that he would stay on dialysis til age 2 yrs and have a transplant. Miraculously at 2 MONTHS, his kidney function picked up to 50% and he came off of dialysis that day. He did not set foot in a hospital (except for routine bloodwork) until he was 9 for his transplant. The kidneys grew with him, but not enough to keep up with his growth so we had always known that he would need a transplant before puberty and that I was a match. He is doing great! and most people would never know that my vibrant energetic young man building lego robots in the basement was ever unhealthy. You and Ellie are in my prayers. If you ever need to talk to someone who understands, please email
ReplyDeleteHooray! What a cute little snugglebug and a wonderful way to be thankful and celebrate Thanksgiving! Take Care!
