Hi ALL ... this is an update to my last question ...
My husband I and went to Missouri to visit our family and friends... While we were there we went to the hospital and got to visit with Gwen and her Mom, (her Dad stays at night with her, there are other children in this family). Gwen has gotten better, shes still not of trouble, but is not getting any worse.
She has to be on a C-pap machine to keep her lungs full of air, if not they might collapse, they did once before last week! Gwen is on 80 to 90% Oxygen, the goal is to get her 40% (room air) and keep her lung in-flatted.
They (the Doctors) have talked about a trake, the family is against it, its not going to help Gwen's quality of life! The chance of infection is much greater. He parents and family, know that this is the downward part of Ms. Gwen's life, I have a daughter Gwen's age ... I cried when I saw her hooked up to the machines!
