Tessa had a restful night. They kept her sedated and she has tolerated the conventional ventilator. Her blood gas tests have been good but her ventilator settings are high and oxygenation is low. A blood test during the night showed a low platelet count and slight anemia. She received a transfusion of platelets and another of red blood cells. Doctors here at Women's Hospital are still coordinating with doctors at Brenners to determine the best possible treatment options for Tessa. We pray for God's guidance.
Exodus 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:

We are praying for God to give the doctors the guidance to make the best decisions for Tessa and strength for Mommy and Daddy.
Hugs to you all.

I'm so glad to hear she had a restful night. Hope you and Nancy did too.
Nancy, I think back to how much blood and platelets you have donated, who knows? maybe Tessa's getting some of yours?!
Love you all!

Anthony, Nancy and Tessa we know this is a hard time. I can't imagine how difficult it must be. We will hold to the faith of God's promises. Matthew 9:22-"But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort, thy faith hath made thee whole." Yes! We will hold to the faith of the promise of Jesus and believe. We ask God will be with you, bless and guide the staff of doctors and nurses with his wisdom, build your faith and you will see his works today.
We Love You!
We are happy to hear that she has a restful night. Hopefully the blood transfusion will give her renewed strength and with her renewed strength mommy and daddy will be able to rest a little easier. I know that God will provide the guidance that the doctors and nurses need in her care. We are praying that today will bring even better news as the day progresses. Sending all our prayers! Lots of love!

We are glad to hear that Tessa is making some progress. I believe God has his plan and that Tessa is strong enough to take it. Prayers to you all.

Heavenly Father, i pray for healing of Baby Tessa. Bless the doctors and nurses with knowledge and Your guidance as they care for her. Comfort her family and her parents and give them peace. This i pray in the name of Jesus, amen.
We are continuing to pray for y'all. We thank the Lord above that the RSV is gone and pray the antibiotics will clear the bacteria and that the pneumonia will soon be gone. I also wanted to let you know that my little boy still asks to check on Tessa daily and last night while he was playing he said he wanted to give Tessa some of the pancakes he made. I think it just goes to show how little kids can show their love for other people, too. We are all praying for you and hope today brings good news for y'all.
