Little Poppet's been up and down these last few days, undergoing her second blood transfusion yesterday. Due to the lingering infection, her hemoglobin has been low as the few red blood cells she's got work overtime to deliver oxygen around the body. As a result, they become depleted, leading to a drop in oxygen saturation (sats), and since her body can't generate them at the required rate they must be replenished artificially. Hence the need for transfusion. Her CRP (infection marker) is still elevated, albeit only slightly in comparison to a couple of days ago, so she continues to be given antibiotics through her IV line.

On the plus side, we caught her having a look at us this evening when we went in to say goodnight...
