we had made sarah's battle very public, but we were completely emotionally unprepared for what was to come. that evening, as we waited for sarah to be transitioned back to her room, an emergency code blue was announced, and sarah's vital signs had begun to fail." this was an incredibly difficult time for the family, as you can imagine. three days later, doctors were telling the family that sarah was unlikely to survive for more than a week. again, this is what doctors were telling her. saying that her lung allocation score, this is the score that they give patients in terms of how serious they are, was an 87, zero to 100, she was at an 87. sarah needed to get another transplant. they were able to give her a second transplant. the family keeping this to themselves, keeping it out of public eye because they saw what happened after the first time, they wanted to make sure that sarah was in the clear and once again, you see the new picture that's up right now.
