Happy Monday!

Today has been a pretty good for Kaylie! The fever is still hanging around 99-101 but, she is doing great otherwise. They are waiting on the blood cultures to see if that will tell them anything. The doctors don't believe it is an infection some where but, that it has to do more with something "chemical". They want to be safe and not miss a brain infection.

Physical and Occupational Therapy came this afternoon to work with her. She did really good! They had her sit at the edge of the bed and work on her balance. They are very pleased with her progress and so are all the doctors and nurses. Therapy was done in about 30 minutes and Kaylie was wiped out and sleeping within a matter of minutes. She earned that nap!

They are planning on moving her to Brooks inpatient rehab in Jacksonville, Fl when they are done here. There are a few things that need to be done first:

1. Drain to come out

2. Fever to be gone

3. No infections

4. Prepared physically (Brooks rehab will be very intense and want her to be ready)

5. Eat, drink, and have bowel movement 

The only one so far that she has done is number 5. With therapy already working with her, hopefully number 4 should come soon. They have already talked about testing her to see if they can take the drain out.

Please continue to pray for Kaylie! She will have some very hard weeks to come!
