Day 7
David didnt get to work yesterday because Becca was up and down all day, she is basically the same today but we cant do anything to help so David has gone to work today. I am taking a quick break for a coffee and some computer time.
Becca is still the same, she is pretty steady in most things barring her oxygen sats. They still keep dropping and tanking out. She is on 10 liters 100% oxygen plus a blow by on 5 liters when she needs it.
She either wakes or someone disturbs her and it takes only 30 seconds for her oxygen to tank out down to the mid forties/low fifties. It then takes about 30 minutes to get them back up to a respectable 70%-75%.
They are trying to leave her alone so they are doing lots of things all in one to try and minimize the desaturation.
A lady just came to our room with Valentines/Get Well cards that people have sent Becca through the online hospital facility.....They print them out like posters on thick card stock, they are very sweet and I read them to her whilst she was sleeping.
I will try and update some later.
Love
Mandy
