Jalyn's Cheer Team Updates

02/22/2022
Jalyn had another great day! She did therapy, took a trip to the gift shop to buy a couple cute stuffed pigs, and celebrated TWOsday like everyone else did at school. We did nothing else but watch the Blackhawks and Bulldogs play basketball on the iPad tonight.
Neurology gave the okay for discharge so we’re getting all of our ducks in a row to bust out tomorrow! As of now, we will be giving her IV antibiotics through her PICC line at home for at least another 4-5 weeks. At that time she will have an MRI to make sure everything looks good on the inside before antibiotics are stopped and the PICC line is pulled. Because of her history of the CSF leaks, the stitches in the back of her head will stay for another two weeks. At that time she will have a repeat CT to be sure the ventricle sizes are still decreasing before they pull them.
We feel that time is what she needed and are optimistic that this trip home will be easier than the last. We can’t thank you all enough for the continued prayers, love, and support! Until tomorrow… we love today!
