PICU PICTURES

I wanted to post some of the pictures I got with my camera phone.  Most of these were taken the day he went for his PICC.  Today he spiked another fever.  The nurse collected all kinds of cultures again.  He's still on his Vancomycin until we find out all the sensitivities to the strep pneumo bug he's growing.  Tonight he had a huge coughing fit and became down on his left side which resulted in some oxygen need for awhile but he's back on room air.  I'm heading to bed anticipating a departure time sometime tomorrow.  Please continue to pray for sweet Gabe, he's still so very critical and somewhat unstable.  Another frequent PICU friend was admitted today with pneumonia.  Please pray that Riley Roo can fight this pneumonia quickly so that she can return home to her family as well.  If you ever need a dose of perspective...spend a day with some of these kids.  Helps you to not sweat the small stuff because it's BIG stuff going on up here.  Remember that life is good.
