They changed one of the anitibiotics again today. The growth from her trach is resistant to many types, so they are hoping that the new one will help her some. Her numbers have again been all over the place, her oxygen index is still ranging from 22-30 and they are again reinterating that ECMO will be needed if she gets above 30 more than a few hours. They have typed her blood and have reserved all the blood products she will need for the procedure if she ends up at that point today.
I dont know what to do anymore, we have pushed and pushed for what we think needs to be done, and they seem to be listening more and more, but at the same time I think that they are just at a loss and are willing to try anything to help her.  Still hoping we can avoid ECMO,  but not sure how the day is going to go.
