Today's quick update

Although they had switched Olivia back to milk from the pedialyte, they had to switch her back because she developed a bad case of the diarrhea. They think she may have picked up rotavirus at the hospital, as the kid next door to her has it. This means she won't be coming home today. The are going to do the MRI while she is there. They are going to do a quick scan so that she won't need to be sedated. They said they won't get as much information from this, but should get what they need. They had to remove her IV today because it started leaking and was not functioning properly anymore. Rather than starting a new one they are just going to see how she does without it. Hopefully she'll be on the mend soon and able to come home.

Poor Olivia-this poor girl cannot catch a break! I hope she is home with you by the weekend. I am thinking of you!

Goodness - poor girl! I hope you get good results from the MRI, and I hope that Olivia does well without the IV! We are still praying that she gets better soon and can go home and rest!
