Hope everyone is having a great Christmas.

 Elizabeth had a slight fever almost all night, and her white blood cell count is higher~ not the best Christmas gift ever! Other than that she is about the same. No new changes other than they were finally able to get the arterial line in today, after much trouble yeseterday. They have made more adjustments on the ventilator to try and wean down some of the settings to decrease the damage it is doing to her lungs.

Looks like home has a white Christmas this year, the first in forever! I will update later, for now I am going to sleep after a long night at the hospital, and then off to find somewhere that is open for our Christmas dinner~ thinking we will be like Ralphie (A Christmas Story) today and find a chinese place open :) If not Mcdonalds is open at the hopstial.
