went today to visit (my bday) and she was asleep so i took a look at her vitals history and judging by her blood pressure she had been comfortably asleep for a few hours i just stood there for a few minutes debating to wake her or not considering she was in the ccu i decided not too so i looked around watched her vitals took a good look at the c pap machine its having to work less and i looked at the big canister that removes fluid build up from her lungs the color of the fluid went from a blackish brown to a clearish yellow in 1 day which is a good sign that her antibodies are working a little harder but they said she isnt letting out enough urine for how much they are giving her in the iv drip but from what i could tell she hadnt eaten in a few days from the blood posioning so they did an ultrasound on her kidneys and bladder waiting on the results from that but she had a fever of 99.1 instead of her usual 97.8 being she has bad circulation so the antibiotics are def causing some sort of conflict and in the good way so things are somewhat looking up im hoping so at least but for those who are listening please continue to pray for carmen mckinney
