The tightrope on a rollercoaster

Katy had a setback this morning. She had a bleed into the ventricles of her brain. This problem is extremely common in little babies. I will be blunt, because there is no other way to explain the situation. One of two things will happen. The bleed will stop and the blood will "melt" away slowly,or the bleed will continue/start again and Katy will have very serious brain damage.

Since the bleed happed, they stabilised her and her results have improved. She still seems stable,relaxed and comfortable but her life is on a knife-edge. Katy is being left alone as much as possible so she can try and fix this problem.

There is nothing anyone can do, it's pretty much up to her now.
