So yesterday we wound up back at the ER with our second ambulance ride. Millie had a great weekend, there were a few oxygen issues Sunday morning but nothing else. Around 3pm her heart rate started going up and she spiked a fever. We put her in the car seat to go to the ER but she had a big oxygen drop and we decided maybe this time it just wasn't worth driving, her heart rate was now at 240s so we called the paramedics. Blood tests showed that her white cell count and platelets were really high (usually means infection).
They decided to admit us to try and get to the bottom of the infection. Her blood work this morning showed a drop in both her white cell and platelet counts; so the Dr.'s are a bit perplexed about what to do. They feel it is 2 separate events (last hospitalization and this one) but are trying to figure out why the counts spiked then dropped. We are waiting for infectious diseases to make some decisions on how they want to approach her. AND, she has her first tooth!!!!! (Finally something "normal" LOL!!!!)
As for her therapies, we have some wonderful things lining up!! I think the spring is going to be really helpful for her :) THANK YOU ALL!!!! We are starting with an Osteopath in March as well as seeing an ABM instructor that is traveling here (so no traveling for that just yet!!).

As well, we will be planning the big 0-1 bash!!! Little baby girl is turning into a big girl!!
Here is a link to her fundraiser. Since her birthday is coming up we are asking for small donations to help pay for some of her appointments we have coming up. Anything is appreciated, $5, $10, $25...whatever!!! Thanks again SO much :)
