[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP update  - thank you all again, writing this down is helping with the thoughts I can't sleep.

She is still very ill unfortunately. They've found medicines to have some impact, but her body is still resisting. It was looking better throughout the day  she was slowly waking up a little. Her breathing was still heavy but blood pressure had gotten close to normal. The doctors were talking about a general ward move this morning. However about 10pm her oxygen levels started to drop alarmingly and they've had to but her on a ventilator. The doctors have said it is acute respiratory distress syndrome.

The positive news is over the night a lot of  vital signs have  improved to suggest they've found the effective antibiotics. They're going to assess throughout the day if ventilation can be removed quickly.

Hopefully we've hit our lowest point and this is the turning point to improvement.

I'm shattered but I don't want to leave her more than an  hour as it can change so fast. She's very asleep so hopefully isn't feeling anything.

Thanks for the prayers, God is fighting with her. She's amazing and a fighter, so if anyone can beat this it's her[/quote]

Yikes, that's very stressful, OP. I'd be a total wreck. Please remember to eat and sleep as much as your anxiety allows. If you have other children, I hope they're not feeling too badly.

Keep updating us. We're all rooting for your family!!!
