Update 3/8/2010

Sooo...last night was a rough night her oxygen got increased from 40% to 50%, the max she can be on and stay on the floor. Just in the short amount of time it took for her to go potty without her oxygen last night she dropped to 79%...so we had to get extension tubing.
The idea is bouncing around of possibly putting her on a CPAP which would result in her going to PICU as well. The doctor went down and talked with the PICU doctors and they are going to come evaluate Samantha to see what they think, but it doesn't seem as if they will come up here and then whisk her downstairs. It is more of a thought that they will evaluate her so that they are familiar with her in case anything else changes today or if she gets worse tonight.
Despite how she sounds and what the numbers say, her chest xrays (3 of them within a 12 hour period) look remarkably good, so we are all a little baffled right now.
I will update when I know more or if anything changes.
