Hey everyone....some of our most precious gifts out there have been having some health scares this past couple of weeks and I'm asking everyone for a few minutes of their day to think of these three. I have received 3 emails that are just terrifying and I know scary for the parents.
Mason had to be rushed to the ER on March 22nd around 1am for a rapid spike in his CO2 levels and no matter what they tried they couldn't get them lowered. At the same time his heart rate kept dropping and went down in to the 50's while is O2 monitor kept alarming. Mason will be having a sleep study done this week and will be visiting Cardiology next Monday. His parents are handling everything well and are watching our Mason very close.
Jenna's mom Lisa contacted me and on Monday March 23rd Jenna had to be rushed to the hospital and was admitted to the PICU. A rash called Petechia was found on Jenna's leg and the doctors with lots of blood tests finding that she had a viral infection, low white blood cells, and low platelet count. Her oxygen levels dropped causing her to stay in the hospital for a week on oxygen and being monitored. Jenna is on vent 24/7. We are waiting on word from her mother as Jenna had more testing done on Monday.
Today I received an email from Maureen about Sophia. She was at work and received a phone call from Sophia's daycare that her breathing was extremely labored and she was very red faced. Sophia had her tonsils and adenoids removed in February in an emergency surgery after a sleep study showed extreme sleep apnea. Once at the hospital and after testing Sophia has been found to have Pneumonia. This is her 4th bout of Pneumonia since December 2008. She is also being watched for high blood pressure and will be visiting Pulmonary and Cardiology again, as well as, her Urologist for her recent UTI.
Please take a moment and wish our babies back to health. We worry about them all every day. Thank you to the mom's for keeping us updated on the children. We love you all.
