First Scan

We have finally heard the OFFICIAL report that Lily's brain scan was clear from yesterday. This is an incredible blessing and a huge prayer answered! We thank you for praying specifically for this. The doctors will still continue to monitor her platelet counts, activity, and physical signs as she is still susceptible to head bleed. Lily is still on antibiotics in case of infection; the final word on that should be coming within the next 24 hours. It takes a while to get blood cultures back.


Lily continues to do well, and they are able to scale back some of her blood draws so they don't have to stick her so much. Her eyes are still not open, but I think it is getting close.


As I mentioned in my last email, Holley's strength was not returning to her very quickly and she was definitely not recovering like we expected her to. She went back to her doctor early today for some blood work and other tests. Unfortunately and fortunately Holley will be having an outpatient surgery tomorrow and we believe this should remedy her recovery.


Please pray that there are no complications tomorrow and that she is able to recover quickly!
