Wishing On A Star

Carly had another bad round of pain from 3am-11am today. We did all we could to comfort her, and finally found a different pain medication combination that brought her some relief. Somehow she picked up hiccup breathing as the pain peaked in the early hours of the morning and these have stuck with her all day. The poor little thing can't seem to shake them.

Carly had another abdomen CT-scan with contrast that would help the doctors identify if there are any hidden issues that did not show up on earlier scans. The preliminary report is that she looks normal. While that is a relief it also leaves us back where we were a week ago with no better idea as to what the root cause of the problem is. A friend brought us some small origami stars that she folded called wishing stars that we have arranged in a colorful rainbow above Carly's head. We are all wishing for peace and a full recovery for our little angel.

Love, Brad

You are surrounding Carly with such love, strength and peace. I know that, despite her pain, she feels this coming from you.
