Thank you for all your support, prayers and thoughts.

Gabriella has had a long day. We did some testing today. She is still fighting her fevers but they are coming down now. I think the antibiotics are helping. She is not eating, my poor little monsterella. I have gotten her to eat a little pudding but her tummy hurts to much to eat. It does look like there is something wrong with the Left Kidney. The right looks great and so does the bladder but the left kidney is shriveled up and is cloudy. Not sure what all that means yet but we BETTER have answers tomorrow or I will be fighting mad

with someone.

Thank you Terri for visiting today, I know you were there when they did her flush and she was so upset. She did FINALLY fall asleep minutes after you left for 1 hour and 40 minutes. It was also nice for me to close my eyes for an hour.

So I am getting more clothes now and heading back out the door to stay the night again. I have to be honest, I have been stress eating and eating cause I am bored. I am so ready to get back to my shakes, physical therapy and get my ass running again. I am holding it together for her, she is my every breath. I so wish I could trade places and I have been praying like mad.

Thanks you all ! Hugs Kristen

Please continue to keep my

Gabriella in your thoughts.

Awwww poor baby girl. ((((GABS)))))) Is it Ecoli in her kidney? This is very common in little girls and they get very sick. They need lengthy hospital stays and IV antibiotics. My youngest was in BWMC 3 times in one month to cure ONE kidney infection caused by Ecoli. So please make sure they stay on top of her meds. When they would send my daughter home saying she was better she would spike a 105 temp in less then 24 hours. It was scary because of course I start to think sepsis and I was so not letting that happen. Is she on Rocephin or Gentamicin? I will say a prayer for her because I know what she is going through. If you need ANYTHING please dont hesitate to ask. I am in your area. Also depending on what hospital your daughter is in, my mother in law could help. She works the ER at BWMC. Just holler if you need help with anything and get her better. ((((((Hugs)))))) ~Jilly~
