Good Morning everyone. I'm sorry for no update last night. But, I went to bed early. Thank you Linda for updating on Piper. I really appreciate that.
Well, It is 5:30am. I will not hear anything until around 8am.
But, this is where we are as of last night.
As Linda stated, They have been giving her Nutrical since yesterday morning, along with her Dextrose. They wanted to do a True Cut Biopsy, But she and her liver are so small it could not be done. They will slowly wean her off the Dextrose starting this afternoon. She will be completely off by tonight. If her blood sugar holds with just the Nutrical, there is still hope. And the next step would be weaning her off the feeding tube Saturday.
If she does not hold her blood sugar when off the Dextrose, we will have to say goodbye to our Baby Piper Girl.
But, I'm not gonna think about that today. I'm going to think of how energetic she was yesterday. I visit her everyday after work, and she is used to mommy feeding her when she gets there. I could not feed her yesterday because they need an empty stomach for the biopsy. She just kept licking my fingers wondering where her food was. She is now back to eating since the biopsy could not be done.
My little girl is a fighter. The Dr. has given her a 10% chance and says 2/3 of her liver is bad. I say that's still a 10% chance and 1/3 of her liver could change this whole outcome. I will not give up until there is nothing else we can do.
So thank you all for your prayers. Tony, Piper, Piccolo and myself thank you from the bottom of our Hearts.
I will update as soon as I hear something this morning.
Tech calls around 8, Dr. calls around 12.
