Day 17 Post-Transplant

Whew! Little Rowan is now a squirming, pooping, happy mess!
And she has been a handful!

She is going through withdrawals (increased heart rate, diarrhea, jittery, sweaty) from alllll of that medication that was used while she was intubated. Poor thing can't sit still even when she tries. BUT thanks to our friendly drug methadone we are doing a little better:)

Great things that happened today:
1. Rowan gets to eat from a bottle!
2. She has weaned off of high-flow oxygen to a regular nasal cannula.
3. Smiles!
4. Holding our baby!

We feel so fortunate and blessed to have made such great progress! No fevers and tacro levels are great. We are going to hold our angel tightly and fight through all of this for our little girl and for our donor angel as well.

Please keep our friends in your prayers. Unfortunately, our little man quickly deteriorated and he was unable to get the liver because he was too sick. They are not expecting for him to make it through the night.

We may be in the hospital for Christmas, but we will have our family... an amazing gift!

  1. Megan I am so proud of you. You and the family especially little Rowan is so strong and a fighter. I always saw that fight in you playing ball and I am hearing that little Rowan is just like mommy. I love reading your blogs and get tears every time I read one. Prayers from our family will continue for a healthy recovery for you and the family. Prayers also go out to the little guy and family. Thank you for letting us in on Miss Rowans life. Diane Konarik and family.
