Since we last posted, Callie’s condition has improved even more. Her strength seems to be close to where it was before she got sick a couple weeks ago.
Today her new home care company brought a Trilogy Bipap machine. It’s one of the most popular models, mainly because it’s more sensitive to her breathing, has more safety features and is very portable.
When we return home — hopefully within a few days — we will be making some changes in Callie’s day-to-day care. We will continuously monitor her heart rate and oxygen saturation level with a small machine Callie calls “my toe.” (She calls it that because we always put the sensor on her toe.)
This way we will be more likely to notice subtle changes that could indicate she’s starting to get sick so we can act.
We’re very grateful to have our happy, energetic girl back and look forward to having her home.
Christy, We are all thinking of you and your family. You are in our prayers. Love, your 3300 dysfunctional family 🙂
So glad to hear Callie is continuing to improve!
“Praise Him, Praise Him, Jesus our blessed redeemer” He again has aswered my prayers and I can only praise him for his mercy. I hope to see you soon…maybe between wedding stuff. The Bagwells love the Goldens more than you can imagine. If you need help, call and we’ll be there.
I’m thrilled to hear that Callie is doing so well. She and the rest of your family have been in my prayers. Love to you all…..Pam
So wonderful to hear such good, encouraging news on Callie’s progress in getting back “your happy and energetic girl”. Just great news, and hope her “my toe” will be a great help in monitoring in the future…Callie, you and Nathan just inspire us all with your attitude and your faith in the way you deal with making her qualify of life so good despite her weakness. We think about you all, all the time.
