We found out today that Kahlia has another ear infection in her right ear...so discouraging - but you would never know looking at her - she is as happy as ever. There was a brownish discharge coming out of her ear - yuck! Dr. McKelvey took a culture of her ear drainage, but we won't find out until Saturday whether it is an infection treatable with regular antibiotics, or if we are going to have to go back up to OHSU to put in another pic line for another round of IV antibiotics...I hope not!!! Her oxygen saturation was at 55% at her doctor's appt. this morning. They said normally that would be a complete emergency - calling 911. It's amazing how her body has adjusted to living with such little oxygen. I can't wait to see her blossom and grow when they finally get her first surgery done. Praying for quick healing - and God's perfect timing for her surgery.
She met Scott's sister Trisha and her kids tonight for the first time - and loved them all. I just wish I could get inside her thought process - she is learning and meeting so many new things, people, surroundings, it must be such a huge information over load!! I love her SO SO much!! The kids continue to love on her CONSTANTLY. She is not lacking in the love department. I don't think she could be loved more by the kids (or us for that matter!) - they are absolutely amazing with her. What a blessing - God knew best having a 4 year gap between the 2 youngest kids - having them older brings a whole new dynamic to their relationship - not to mention I have 3 GREAT mommy's helpers. I feel blessed beyond words - adoption has been such an amazing experience for us - ups and downs for sure - but so amazing to see how God works in truly mysterious ways that we could never begin to understand. Simply amazing.
