another pneumonia/infection

Today just a bunch of tests. They did an  EKG this morning. Then a CT scan. Then a  bronchoscopy after that. The transplant surgeon wants to double check there is nothing medically impeding her recovery in breathing and being off the ventilator. 

From these tests they believe she maybe at the start getting another  pneumonia/infection. So they will start her proactively on antibiotics again. Sent cultures off for testing. They also did a lung biopsy today just to make sure they don't miss anything. She is about due for that anyway(they do at 30 days after transplant to check for any sort of rejection). Should know results tomorrow After all testing she is doing fine and in good spirits.
