Back on Oxygen

Lynnea's time without her oxygen was short-lived. It's back on, the flow is up to 3 liters (it had been down to 2 liters) and she's on about 40% oxygen (she had been on room air before). Yes, this does feel like a set back, but maybe once she's truly feeling better she won't need it. Her fever was up again today, and she looked pretty miserable. She was restless, and clammy, and nauseous (she can't actually throw up because of the surgery that she had on her esophagus to solve her reflux problems, but she can make choking/gagging noises as though she's going to throw up). This evening her temperature had come down some, and she seemed to rest a bit more comfortably in my arms than she had been earlier today. Maybe tomorrow things will be better.
