Meghan has been resting all day. Labs have stopped. They have stopped all medication, she is not on any antibiotics or anti fungal anymore. Meghan has been put on a morphine drip to keep her comfortable. This is not ending the way we have all hoped for, our hearts are breaking. The doctors are telling us it may only be a few days until Meghan passes 😢 Thank you so much for all thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time, there are just no words💔.

Monday 3/18/19

Meghan got some rest last night, she was only up once. Her hemo is at 6.5 and white count is 23.8. They are holding off on giving her blood because her heart rate is ok. Meghan was very unresponsive this morning and not following simple commands. Neuro used the rubber mallet on her legs today to test reflexes and she did not show any reaction. Doctors stopped her antibiotics but they will not stop the anti fungal. They believe if they stop the anti-fungal medication her infections will go to her blood, causing more issues. Her doctors had a meeting with Rob today. Meghan is very sick and they have done everything they can but Meghan’s body isn’t responding. She is still bleeding and they can’t get it to stop. The MRI results are inconclusive right now, they know she hasn’t had a stroke but there are changes in her brain. As of today they decided to put Meghan on comfort care, which is basically hospice care in the hospital. They will start her on a morphine drip and make sure she is comfortable. Please pray Meghan isn’t in pain. This is all very hard for us to wrap our heads around and still can’t believe this is all happening.

Sunday 3/17/19

Meghan had an okay night. Hemo is 7.8, white count is at 24 and platelets are at 37. Rob is waiting to hear from the NP if the results in from the MRI yesterday. Meghan was bleeding a little again from her abdomen. ACES came and repacked her and added floseal to help her clot. Vitals are stable. Neuro doctor came in and explained to Rob that the MRI had a change in her white matter. He is going to have his team look over it as well so we will get more info on that tomorrow. Meghan is resting and hopefully she can for the night.

Meghan had an ok night and got some sleep. She did have a psychological exam and they think she is suffering from delirium. They suggested to do an MRI of her brain to make sure they aren’t missing anything. They are going to start her on a medication for that called Halodol. Doctors are trying to ween Meghan off of some medication to help try and clean her blood and system a little so it can hopefully revive itself. She went back off the ventilator late morning and doing ok with that. They stopped all antibiotics and she is only on the anti-fungal medication for now. Meghan still has that ooze bleed from her abdomen and they repacked it this morning. Meghan went for the MRI at 4pm for her brain. They said they will not have the results until tomorrow. Meghan was sleeping on and off for most of the day and not too responsive.
