I am so excited to tell you that MUSC has wireless. So after they close the computer lab I can still post. Coleman is doing well. She is still on the ventilator and they are going to keep her on until morning. She is doing good with the breathing part but when they turn the machine off and have her breathe on her own her blood pressure drops. It has to do with the veins around the lungs tightening up. Since they had to repair the right ventricle it is not strong enough (yet) to push the blood through the tightened veins.
Anyway they are helping her sleep tonight and feel that when she wakes up in the morning she will be ready to come off the ventilator.
We ask that you would join us in prayer in having this happen. The sooner she gets off the ventilator the sooner we can get some of the other wires and tubes out of her and get her to another room so we can hold her.
Another prayer request - I am so impressed with all the families we have met here in the PCICU waiting area. The little boy I talked about in an earlier post is out of surgery and doing well. But now I have met another family who has a 4 year old son and he is currently in the waiting room awaiting a heart transplant. Please keep this precious family and little guy in your prayers. The really awesome thing that we have going on here is all the prayer. Both families are strong believers and we just share God's love and peace.
God Bless you all
In Him

Scott and Meghan,
We are very glad to hear that Coleman is doing well. I have been calling Karen for updates. I didn't understand how this site worked until just now.
You have all been in our thoughts and prayers and will continue to be. God has trusted you and Megan with an extra special gift in Coleman. I'll look forward to reading the updates in the next couple of days.
Praying for you all
Dee, Dan, Elizabeth, Garrett & Conner
Dear Kinney Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are going strong for Coleman and the rest of your family.
God always looks after our babies....always.
Looking forward to more updates.
warm regards,
Kelle, Robin, Laurel and Harper
I had forgotten about all the other family's you meet in that waiting room. What a great place to share! When you bring the boys to see Coleman take then the the Atrium (I think that's what its called) to play. Its a great play room for children in the hospital and their siblings. Michael loved it! Take care of yourselves. Wendy
The atrium is closed. They are remodeling it. They said it should be open by now but it's not.
