First blood transfusion...

Averi had to get a blood transfusion last night due to the low levels of hemoglobin in her blood. As a result of all of the testing they do, they take blood out more quickly than she can replace it With all the meds that they have been giving her, Averi's blood started to become a little acidic--not to the point of concern--but it was definitely being watched. The transfusion has corrected this for now. They also put a PICC line in her leg to allow better administration of meds. (Similar to an IV, but it is more long-lasting and versatile.)

For now she is stable! Thank you for your continued prayers.
