Hospital stay

August 16th Makenzie was scheduled for clinic in the Morning. She woke up around 6:30 A.M telling me she was hungry and went downstairs to get something to eat and watch TV before we leave. Thinking nothing of it because she has done that before. My alarm went off so I got up and I heard the TV blasting loud (thankfully), so I yelled from upstairs for her to turn it down but she didn't respond so I thought she fell asleep, so I ran downstairs and found her barley breathing. I screamed for Tyler and he came running down and started CPR on her while I called 911.
It seemed like forever for them to come, when they showed up they couldn't get a pulse reading so they rushed her to the closest hospital which was Jordan Valley hospital.
Tyler and I followed behind while the other kids went to the neighbors. We got to the hospital and they were doing CPR on her, and kept getting pulses and then wouldn't and then got one and then didn't.
It was the longest and most scariest thing that I have witnessed watching your child lay there fighting for there life. After an hour, yes one hour of CPR the ER doctor said sometime we need to call it, we will give them 5 more minutes. After 5 the minutes the paramedics stepped back and they said she has a pulse.
They had to get her stable enough to get her on life flight to transport her to Primary Children's Hospital. Tyler was able to go with her, since I decided to start having contractions and they kept me at the hospital for observation. I was not a very happy momma, I was supposed to be with Makenzie.
They got Makenzie to the hospital she was put in the CICU. We had no idea what the future would hold for her
