Prayers please...Avarey is doing well this morning but she has to have a few procedures which are risky! With taking the fluid off it has caused a space between her windpipe and breathing tube...they now have to change her to a bigger breathing tube. This means moving her neck with the blood tubes in...and with being a blood thinners this could cause bleeding. Also they are not pleased with the artery line in her left leg and will be pulling that and placing it in her right leg. Once again this could lead to bleeding or too much clotting. AS good as these things are, ECMO is making them big bad and scary! Please please please pray! Prayers go up Miracles come down! ♥
