Some good news

We got a little bit of good news today. Katie's cultures that they took today came back negative for growth. The doctor said we need to have three negative cultures in a row to be completely out of the woods. Katie has been cleared to eat if she wants to (but she does NOT want to eat right now because she is scared to throw up again). The central line will probably not have to be changed. Katie is completely off one of the blood pressure medications (norepinephrine), and they are working on getting her off of the other one. Katie is doing pretty well considering everything she has gone through. Christa and I were able to get some sleep last night. The Ronald McDonald house and all who volunteer there are true blessing from God. Thank you to all of you for everything you have done for our family. Please continue to pray for Katie as well Laura Beth. Laura Beth is not sick but she has been tossed around a lot. I am sure she feels like we have orphaned her. Just pray she understands that we love her and wish we could be there with her.
