We would like to start off by thanking everyone for all of your support, prayers and positive thoughts.We would like to update you on Jasmine's progress. These last few days have been a struggle. There have been a few ups and a few downs as well.
Jasmine is still in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and she is still on the breathing tube. Yesterday we were told that by Friday morning they would remove it, but this morning a few plans changed due to a concern for her right lung that has collapsed a few days ago. They plan on leaving the breathing tube in for a couple more days. Meanwhile her lung function is improving and she is using minimal oxygen ventilation to breathe. So hopefully in the next few days the breathing tube can come on out.
She has also been experiencing some nausea, vomiting and spikes in fever. They have performed an ultrasound and X-ray of her stomach to determine if there is something causing her nausea and vomiting. Both procedures came out clear of any concern. For her spikes in fever they have sent out a variety of different labs which have come out negative of any infection. They are planning to do a cat scan of her upper body to determine if she has any infection or if this is just a fever associated with her different medicines. They plan to do this tonight or tomorrow morning...will update on that as soon as we get the results.
They have also begun to ween her off sedation and she is quite alert. She continues to smile and give high fives and fist pumps to everyone (excluding the doctors) :) Her new thing to do now is blow kisses! She has also been working with occupational therapy and physical therapy on her legs and arms. She loves it when we read her books and occasionally likes us to let her turn the page.
We are continuing to remain strong and find the positive in everything that we are going through. We will leave you with this scripture that helps us remain strong in our faith.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."- Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
We believe strongly that God has a special plan for Jasmine. She is teaching all of us something very special! Thank you again for all your prayers, support and donations. #TeamJasmine #JasmineStrong
I am so sorry that you and your family is going through this. I know first hand what it is like to have your little child in the hospital. I felt helpless when my daughter had to be in the hospital for nearly 2 months since she was born. Now she is 10 months, I thank the Lord everyday for her healing from MSRA.Your daughter has a strong spirit and will get through this. I will keep her and your family in my prayers. Don't give up...take a cue from your little girl.
