Update

Yesterday:

Today:

Izzy was intubated this morning because her SpO2 level was dropping into the 60s, a result of being under heavy sedation. We are waiting to find out whether or not the drug presently being administered to her has stopped the status epilepticus. If not, they will induce a coma.

Erika, I know what it's like to watch your child when they're intubated. That inability to do anything for them and just seeing them so still is very strange. Then they come out of it and they're OK. I'm thinking of you all and hoping you'll all be home again soon.

Oh, Erika, I am just a blog follower, following your journey with Izzy, and my heart is broken. I have two typical adult daughters but I've been in special education for over 30 years. Know that you have inspired many people with your blog, that we also love Izzy and her spirit, and want the best for you and her. Prayers and love from afar.
