Update 3/10 by Dad

Raena is showing signs of improvement. She has opened her eyes about 10 times, usually it lasts for about 30-45 seconds then she goes back into her sleep. When she does open her eyes her vital signs shoot up quite high and Nikki or I just try and reassure her everything will be ok and try to calm her down.

Her angiogram is scheduled for tomorrow morning and today they are doing a blood transfusion to increase her platelets and red blood cells for tomorrow’s big day. We are hoping this will show what caused Raena to have the aneurysm in the first place.

It did seem as if Raena did squeeze our hands when asked but that is still hard to tell. They just gave her more pain meds to help her cope with the 2 incisions in her head as well as all the iv’s and wires running around.

Thank you for the continued support whether visiting, texting or sending positive vibes (prayers some call it) as all forms are welcome.

With love from Raena, Nikki and Steven!
