Two Steps Back
Over the last few days Carly has been having increasingly bad days. The staff in the PICU expected that it was a bug that would pass, and Carly was moved to the regular floor of the hospital yesterday afternoon. She was very irritable all last night, with Christa and I doing everything we could to keep her calm. By late morning she started showing more serious symptoms and after another head CT scan she was sent back to the PICU. The head CT looked normal and Carly's shunt seems to be working, so the exact cause of her symptoms is still unknown. Fortunately, a few hours ago they were able to finally get Carly to a more restful state. She will have an overnight EEG study and tomorrow we will meet with the neurology and neurosurgery teams to come up with a plan. We will keep you all posted, and your love and support is helping all three of us.

Hang in there guys! I know the ups and downs are rough and we'd all rather see Carly on a steady upward climb towards perfect health, but the three of you are so strong I know you will all get through these little rough spots. All of my love to your precious little girl and your family. Looking forward to a wonderful new year of health and happiness for you all.
I am sorry about the set back. I hope Carly can get some rest and be comfortable soon. Perhaps this adjustment might be just what was needed.
You guys constantly amaze and inspire me! It sounds like Carly is getting great care from the docs, and a world of support both home and abroad. I know you guys will get through this, and I'm sending my prayers!!
