More sickness

Miss Megan is back in the hospital.   For those of you that don't know or remember, Megan is my 14-year-old niece who had a kidney transplant this summer.   We've been so grateful for her amazing recovery (and her donor daddy's), but with the anti-rejection meds she's on, she catches just about every virus that she comes across.  

Apparently, Megan had been at the mall yesterday with some friends and began throwing up, plus she had a high fever.   My sister took her to the ER in the wee hours of the morning today (as they've been instructed to do for this first year post transplant).  She JUST got moved to a room late this evening.   Every time Megan was sleeping, her blood pressure would drop significantly, so the staff at the hospital did not want to move her to a room until her blood pressure stabilized.  

Her blood pressure seemed to be doing better, she was keeping food down okay, plus her temp had dropped down, but then suddenly spiked.   Poor baby!   :(

I'll keep you updated on Miss Megan.   She was sick the weekend before Thanksgiving and was hospitalized, but pulled through in time to spend the holiday with our family.   Please pray that the same will happen before Christmas.
