Day 9- We gotta get this kid off ECMO!
Anya started off the day by having a clot in her tubing; the
doctor cleaned it out before it became an issue. He is hoping she can be weaned
off the ECMO soon; some babies are predisposed to making clots and apparently
she is one of them! We are well on our way though, they were able to take her
settings down today. When they cleaned out the clot she needed to be taken off
the ECMO and again her numbers all stayed stable! I believe they are aiming for
tomorrow, but that may change. ECMO is
the most dangerous thing that Anya has to overcome, getting off of it is going
to be a HUGE milestone!! It was hard to leave her this evening, I pray
everything continues to go well tomorrow; that she is taken off ECMO and STAYS
off!
