Wagon Ride of Torture

Rough morning for Lily Grace. After her chest X-ray, it was discovered that Lily's right lung is getting progressively worse. It is now partially collapsed and still full of fluid. Our sweet girl is also painfully coughing up lots of blood. We tried to get her in a wagon since sitting up should help open her lung, but just the act of raising her bed necessitated two doses of dilaudud, and a dose of toradol....enough medicine to knock two grown men flat on their backs. Lily is resting now, but in a couple of hours she will be forced to get in that wagon. Please pray for her pain to be managed, and for mommy to keep it together. 

A wagon ride should never feel like torture to a child...this is just wrong!
