> Lalo had some improvements over night. He has been peeing some on his own and the heavy antibiotics seem to be helping. He is still extremely swollen from several days of his kidneys not really responding. But he is way less pink than he was yesterday and his hands and feet are a much better color/temperature (yesterday they were gray and ice cold).

> They have had to increase the settings on the ecmo to help him fight off the suspected infection as well as the extra stress that the fluid puts on his lungs.

> The fellow showed a lot less stress in her face when she gave me some info after rounds. She is happy his kidneys are starting to pick up and overall seemed like he was showing some progress. But she didn't want to say any of that around little Lalo bc he likes to try to keep her on her toes. Sounds like our boy! The surgeon also was very cautious and said we need to just hope and pray that he has a couple more good days like this. We are still not confident, but today is a better day than yesterday and we'll take that. Please continue to pray that Little Lo can stack up a few more good days.
