Setback

Today we were awoken before 5:00am by a phone call from the hospital. Aisling has had a major setback! Her breathing dropped drastically over night and she appeared pale in color, among other things. The doctors immediately moved her back into the intensive care unit and put her back on the respirator to help her breath. They say that she may possibly have an infection and are conducting many tests. This morning she had to have a blood transfusion and a spinal tap. They are not exactly sure what is happening but will let us know as soon as they find out.

We are trying our best to stay positive and keep up our strength for our little girl. We spent the day with her this and she seemed to be stable with the assistance of the respirator and medications. It was apparent that she was exhausted and slept a great deal. She is a fighter and has been through a lot over the first few weeks of her life. We are hopeful that she will continue to fight and get through this.

Please continue to send your thoughts and prayers her way.
