Baby Karalea's ICU Stay

Donation protected
This is Karalea.
She is 11 months old. Starting around 4 months old, her eczema started and has only gotten worse. Parents have tried absolutely every remedy known, to try and heal her skin. Nothing has helped, after hundreds of visits to the doctor, still nothing has worked. She has been severely itchy and red from head to toe since then and has thus impeded growth and development due to her body trying to fight this. She began gagging, choking and vomiting after nursing which led to some weight loss and dehydration so Karalea was brought to the ER and admitted to the pediatric ICU as critical. Her electrolytes are severely imbalanced, protein is extremely low, may have food absorption issues, immune system issues, adrenaline, thyroid and other hormone issues, and a UTI. The recomended treatment in the pediatric ICU at this point has been to rehydrate her to correct and recorrect imbalances, give her steroids, and antibiotics to start. She had a central line placed and once levels are balanced, will most likely start IV nutrition. Many tests are being performed to determine the next steps. Please keep Karalea and her parents in your prayers. They will need as much financial assistance as possible to help support them during this undetermined ICU stay.
