Crystal was not making progress at this point but she wasn't getting any worse. They were monitoring her closely. She was still at 100% oxygen and her blood saturation level was around 93 for the majority of the day. We thought that we would be getting the blood culture back that would tell us what exactly had caused the pneumonia that then turned into ARDS. She tested negative for the flu more than once, however, that is what the doctors believe is the cause.
