Adriana is doing well. We are still on the waiting list for a room at the RonaldMcdonald house, so we could be discharged from the hospital. We finally finished evaluatng Adriana for a transplant. I am not sure of any results yet but the doctor told me she would be by today to let me know what they are. They tried to cycle Adriana yesterday for 2 hours but of course her blood sugars went down. They were at 62 the first time and then went down to 39, the doctors werent so excited about that. They restarted her TPN right away and checked her sugard again. They then came up and she was fine, while her sugars were low she was not acting any different, she looked fine but they were worried she might go into shock, Well Adriana is not yet on omgaven we are stil waiting for an answer from the insurance but hopefully we get one today. So I am learning how to take care of her at home, the home health care comes almost every day to show me how to hook her up and how to use the pumps. They are not as hard as I thought. Well I will keep everyone updated as we get farther down the week. Hopefully next time I update you guys I will have the good news that Adriana has started omegaven let's just see.
