In the PICU

Scarlett is in the PICU at Phoenix Children's Hospital. For the past few days Scarlett has been very tired and hasn't shown us that beautiful smile or little giggle. We made the decision early yesterday morning to head to the hospital for some tests and help. We took Scarlett to the ER around 9:30 am and have been in the PICU since 3:30 yesterday afternoon. So far the only findings are low potassium, chloride, and sodium. They started Scarlett on an I.V. fluids, but she continues to be a upset. As of this morning her Sodium levels look better, but we will probably be around for another 48-72 hours until our culture gets back. They are thinking she has a virus... Please send some prayers. We want to get our baby girl home soon. Daddy's birthday is tomorrow, so hopefully his present will be to get his daughter home with smiles on her face.
