20th August

Nothing much new to report today.

Breathing is still pretty much as before, although apparently Briony needed more support overnight and was up to 39% oxygen a couple of times. This had led them to question whether she might need a further transfusion, so the doctors came and took blood from her this afternoon while I was there to see if this is the case. It seems strange that they keep taking so much blood to find out if she has enough of the stuff or not! I secretly suspect that she may need another transfusion - her hands were a little cold again today and looked quite white at her finger tips.

Briony was very awake and active during her nappy changes today - at one point she had hold of my hands so tightly that I didn't want to take them away from her as I thought I would hurt her!

Granny Stephanie and Grandad Tony visited today. They think that she looks much better than when they last visited a couple of weeks ago.

Mummy will be at the hospital bright and early tomorrow morning for the ward round as the doctors want to discuss the blood transfusion options with her. No rest for the wicked!
