I know I have been a little lax on keeping up the blog but somedays there just seems to be to much going on for me. Let's see...A week ago Ily went in and had the feeding tube put in her stomach and that went very well. They began her 2nd round of chemo and that was going quite well. It seemed that things were going to be easier for her this time than they were the first time she went through this.
Ily was suppose to come home this week but she wasn't keeping anything down. Last night she her lips and tongue turned purple and she started to shake. Turns out she had a fever.They did some tests and she has a bacterial blood infection. How? No one knows. Today her fever has been high and they have just informed her Mom and Dad that she has a blockage in her intestines. This poor little girl is going through so much. Tomorrow if she is not any better they will be moving her into ICU.
Please say a few extra prayers for her and her parents. They are going through a hard time right now. We Thank you for all your good thoughts and prayers that have already been sent.
Ilyanna's Story
Christina and Thiago met in 2005 and not exactly a " Wow that's the guy for me scenerio" but after about 6 months of being friends it soon became that. So in August of 2007 they got married. It was like watching 2 people who never took their eyes of each other and then Christina became pregnant. She watched what she ate, Thiago doted on her, and heaven forbid, she gained too much weight on that 100 lb frame of hers.
On August 2, 2008 Christina gave birth to Ilyanna. She weighed in at 10 lbs 1.5 ounces and was 21 inches long. What a beautiful baby she was. She was a big one. The whole family was just hysterical because Christina was so small.
Ilyanna was a great baby. Every parent would wish for one like her. Cried very little..slept through the night after two months of being home and was always happy. Once she started to hear her own voice the louder she became. Always smiling.
The one thing you did notice was the size of Ilyanna's head it was large. Well, her Dad is a big guy with a large head so we just assumed she would grow into it. As she got larger she did. When she went for her regular check-ups her pediatrician was concerned about the size so he sent Ilyanna into Children's Hospital for a cat scan to check for no swelling on the brain. This is where everything began....
