Kennedy had an ok day today. She gained weight overnight and is now up to 1 lb 15oz. She had a little trouble holding down her milk so they stopped her feedings for the day. Her white blood count was up which is usually a sign of infection so they started her on antibiotics and started running some test. They did a belly scan to make sure the intestines look good and that came back ok. They did a urine culture to see if she has a urinary track infection and they redid her blood work at 6 so we're just waiting for the results. They had to do a small transfusion last night because they noticed some of her levels were low. Because of everything going on with her we just let her rest today. She'll get the antibiotics tomorrow as well so hopefully that'll make her feel all better! They also switched her room yesterday so now she has her own room which I like so much better!
That's it for today. I'm going to get an update from her nurse when I call at 9:00. Hopefully all is well and she has a good night!
