Summary of events
On wensday Lilia went to the hospital in London to have her G tube track dialted. Once she was asleep they had a hard time getting her to breathe and so they did an x ray after the procudure. they found that her left long was collapsed. Although she looked a lot better then her x ray showed they decided to intubate her and admit her to the PCCU (paedtric critical care unit) there they did a few bronchs (where they put a camera down the tube and suction out the gonk thats in her lungs) they found a lot of secreations. Did swabs to check for virus's.
The swabs came back negative after 24 hours. The lastbronch they did on friday showed that the stent (that she had placed in her lung as an infant) has moved and is blocking her air way. they decided to send her by helicopter to sick kids in toronto. Wehre they are more capable to handle her. Since this is where they put the stent in in the first place.
Right now the docs here at sick kids are unsure if they can even do suregery to fix the problem. They are looking at her CT scans and x rays but still seem unsure on what to do about this problem.
Lilia is getting pretty pissed off with how much they are bugging her. SDhe is on morphine though, so as long as they don't suction her shes ok.
I'll update this blog as much as possible. Since they have computers in the PICU now.
