Friday:
The doctors wanted to try something different- to help her kidneys & with her high sugar.
Dr. Sher (Pediatric Endocrinology)- wanted to try replacing 1/2 of all the fluids output in her urine.
She thought that it might help with Dianna getting up to potty every hour to hour & a half.
This was in addition to all the other fluids she was receiving.
Dianna received a Platelet transfusion today.
Saturday:
It did NOT work...
Dianna was up every 30 minutes to potty!
ALL NIGHT!!!
And it continued through the day.
She is exhausted! :-(
*So am I! :-(
Sunday:
Still more of the same...
Dianna's getting up every 30 minutes to potty!
Just about the time Dianna gets back into bed and falls asleep, then she wakes up again to go potty.
Poor Baby! I feel so bad for her.
Dianna is so tired that she is not wanting to eat or drink.
Dianna received a Platelet transfusion today.
Pray that the doctors are able to resolve this issue SOON!

Keep your chin up. We are praying for you every day and every day I see progress on your blog page. I am sure the doctors will find an answer for the too many trips to the potty issue. Know that we love you and are very proud of you. Keep being brave!
