Say a little prayer

My sweet niece Makena is sick and was admitted to Doernbecher's Children's Hospital on Saturday afternoon. As second children often do, Makena caught a cold when she was about a week old. She had been very stuffed up and was having a little trouble nursing, but nothing serious. Then on Saturday, Megan and Jim noticed that she was having difficulity breathing. They immediately called the Dr. who told them to take her to the ER. They were admitted to Doernbecher's that day. After many tests, x-rays, etc. they discovered that she has RSV. It is pretty serious but luckily, she will get better. She is under watchful eyes and many monitors and has the most wonderful Dr.'s helping her. She's on oxygen but other than that she's doing well on her own. I know that Megan is anxious to get home to Max but also doesn't want to go home before Makena's ready to. Please keep Makena, Megan and Jim in your prayers.
