And the verdict is…
Posted by Andrew & Jessica on Tuesday Oct 23, 2007 Under Mary ElizabethCancelled!
Yep, so our Third attempt at going for her Sclerotherapy/Injection surgery (originally
scheduled for Sept 13th) has been canceled once again. While it appeared
her temp was going down and she’s not showing any other signs of being
sick- we thought for a moment she would still be going… but I
definitely believe God had other plans… here’s how it all went down…
Sunday- came down with fever of 102
Monday- Fever was between 99.4-100.2
Tuesday- Fever was 99.1 (close to normal)
…..until
moments before I was going to take her to the Dr and I felt her body
burning up…. Dr took it at the appointment and it was 102 again.
Obviously we’re not going to get cleared for surgery with that!
(if the fever is still up for 2 more days- they want her back in for
bloodwork/urine analysis etc- to see if there are any infections- otherwise everything looked fine – ears, lungs
clear, no secretions, no strep etc.)
Only an hour had passed til I got home and she didn’t feel very warm at all- temp was back down to about 100.
This surgery wasn’t meant to happen- at least not now,
obviously. Though we wish we knew why… we have to accept it for what it is.
As it stands now we are looking towards scheduling this for late January/early February–
to be sure that it does not interfere with labor and delivery of the
new baby and doesn’t happen in the midst of bringing the baby home to
get settled. We are waiting on a more definite date.
Nonetheless, as always- keep her in your prayers.
