Monday morning

Good morning everyone! I wanted to give everyone a quick update on how Kayli is doing this morning. We've had very good updates from doctors today.
They took the NG (naso-gastric) tube out last night, so Kayli's tummy is hurting a little bit. She's pretty hungry but they said probably can't eat until tomorrow. She may only be spending one more day in the ICU, then she will go to the IMU. Physical therapy came by this morning and got her out of bed, she sat in a chair for a good while but she tired quickly and the pain got to be too much. She is back in bed now, napping on some pain meds.
Dr Mieles is extremely pleased with how she is doing. And thinks she may be able to go home the end of this week. I am not sure if that means Friday or Sunday...but still AMAZING considering what they had prepared us for! The best and most exciting news for Kayli was they might let her go back to school the end of February!!! This would mean the WORLD to her!! They are still recommending she no play sports for 6 months to a year, and think it will take her a good 3-6 months to recover to a level of almost feeling normal. However, as we've seen she is a remarkable child and seems to recover from things very quickly.
The only "set back" (if you can even call it that) is that Kayli's platelet count was low again this morning, so she has received a unit of platelets today. Hopefully her next lab values will look better again. No one seemed to be too concerned with this. The next goal for today is to get up and actually walk to the bathroom as they have taken the foley catheter out. She is completely off of any kind of breathing aids though, no nasal cannula at all- just room air! :)
I have snapped a few pictures which I will add as soon as I can. My computer is not cooperating at the moment so I have borrowd Mark's, but cannot upload the pictures. :(

Thanks everyone for continuing to read and follow and pray!!!
