Last 3 days have been long, emotional but at the end rewarding.
On Thursday morning Mireya had de-satted a few times but this was due to her body inside been to warm and she was unable to settle. The nurses/doctors have been so shocked at Mireya cause she has been on that many sedation medications she should have been still and relaxed but Mireya been Mireya kept them on their toes she was still kicking and arms going everywhere trying to get the tubes out and three nurses had to hold her down. So they had to give her a really strong medication which paralysis the body just so she would settle to let her body rest and heal.
On Friday she had a big desat it scared me she had to have a little bit of help from the nurses but after about 2-3mins she was back to herself as if nothing had happened. The doctors decided she wasn’t liking the ventilator tube so took the tube out to see how she would be then. And no one could believe it she was lovely and settled the best she has been since operation. It was so lovely to see her in a nice sleep and not uncomfortable. As all tests come back good, I finally got to hold our baby girl again the feeling omg it was like the first hold when she born again. The emotion the feeling just unreal.
Today (Saturday) When I walked in the ward I said good morning to Mireya and she finally opened her eyes it was a lovely feeling our little girl looking at me again. Later this afternoon she got moved from PICU to HDU (high dependency unit). She has had a lovely relaxed day today and since moving into HDU she has been really settled and they said if she has a good night she will be moved on to the ward.
Our little miracle really is a fighter and she is taking everything in her stride. We are so proud of her she keeps getting these challenges thrown at her and just powers through.
