The next 24 hours will be critical for McKenna. She currently is breathing on her own without a respirator, which is a magnificent blessing. She, however is breathing too quickly and also her brain pressures are a little high. If she continues to work this hard to breathe on her own, she will be placed back on the respirator. Please pray for her as much as you feel led within this time frame that her breathing would relax to a regular rate and that her brain pressures would be normal. The doctors have again reitterated the fact that Mac's lungs are indeed strong. She will have a CT scan tomorrow to determine if a permanent shunt from her brain to her stomach would be helpful in lowering her brain pressures. Thanks to all our friends and family for their love and support.
