Emma Update

Emma's spot is looking better. May take a couple weeks to go away. The lab result was a staff contaminant meaning it was from a staff bacteria that is not found normally on people and was picked up from somewhere.  Dr. Argenal was expecting mrsa but was very pleased that it wasn't. We continue with the cream for the seven days and antibiotics for the ten days. We only need to bring her back if it gets worse or if we see signs of another spot forming. He also said to keep a look out for similar spots on the other kids.

Emma Update

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your prayers and comments. Emma is still just a happy baby. The spot on her leg is a little bit better. Still a long way to go, but we are working on it. The doctor thinks it is either an abscess or a staph infection. It is now open and they were able to get a sample from the puss. We should have results tomorrow or Monday. She has another 10 day antibiotic regimen and 7 day ointment regimen.  

Please continue to pray! Will keep everyone updated when we find out what is exactly going on. 

Prayers please.

We are calling on all of you, and those you know. Please pass this along. 

Emma has been dealing with double ear infections since June 11th. She had a ten day antibiotic treatment for strep throat May 27th, so for the double ear infection they went with a stronger antibiotic 10 day treatment. It seemed to clear up and 3 days after finishing the antibiotic she was sick again. This time she had 3 antibiotic shots. Again seemed to clear up but 3 days after treatment her ears were hot and she had fever again. Everyone prayed hard. Her ears were clear 3 hours later at the doctors office. She had just a virus. We went in two weeks ago for her well visit and she woke up that morning feverish and sure enough the double ear infection was back. The doctor referred us to an ENT to look at tubes and put her on the strong 10 day antibiotic. She just finished the treatment. 

The site where she got 2 of the injections previously had a bump under the skin. In the last two days it has become red and this morning it is red and yellow with a rash on it and is spreading down her leg. 

Please pray. Frankie has her at the doctor now with Goy and Marion. I'm working all day so being kept up to date via text.

Happiness

Happiness is seeing the trail of fun Emma had while the whole house was asleep, and having the memories of her sweet play time being the last thought of the night.
