mom's update

Courtney had avery tough nite. She spiked a temp of 101.9 and had to have cultured taken to check for infection. Xrays of the right llung show a potential problem. Courtney also developed a rash yesterday that we initially thought may have been a reaction to plastic introduced to her environment. We're not sure if all are related and so doctors will be discussing what to do and if its still safe to transfer her to rehab.
Please pray that these issues resolve themselves and that she is able to move on to rehab tomorrow. Everyday in a regular hospital is a day exposed to dangerous bacteria and every day in bed with very little therapy makes her recovery harder and longer.

I attended Mass and Breakfast at LSA on Sunday and was touched by Fr. Kenney's homily about Courtney. Today I read through the blog and again, I was touched by Courtney's strength and will to survive along with her parents,' sisters,' and other family members steadfast support for their daughter/sister/niece. You are all my thoughts and prayers.
