Kacie, get well soon!


My niece, Kacie got really sick about a week and a half ago! On Saturday, Aug. 16th she was transferred from Holy Rosary to St. Luke's due to complication from Ecoli. Then Doctors diagnosed Kidney failure, pancreatitis, and colitis. That night they did surgery and put in a catheter for kidney dialysis. The next day she aspirated, (got liquid in her lungs) and she had to be put on a ventilator.

Things were the same until Wed. Aug. 20th, Doctors were concerned because she was not breathing above the ventilator. They ordered for her to have MRI to rule out a possible stoke. We are very so excited, because this morning they got the results from MRI everything looks normal! Doctors felt comfortable to get her off the ventilator, so they did and Kacie is doing well! She is still pretty sleepy, but that is to be expected because of the kidney dialysis the medication is taking longer to leave her body!

My sister has started a blog to keep us updated on her progress! Her blog is kaciet.blogspot.com! Kacie we are praying for you and your family! We sure love you and hope you get feeling better soon!
