Just got out of the NICU for a bit, the legion of doctors are going to have a cardiac conference on him today, But after talking with the surgeons it looks like they might just leave him be, for a while. They are going to try to take him off of the prostaglandin drug today, which means a lot, that drug is an arterial dilator, but it has some nasty side effects like it makes him over heat and it can cause apena ( stop breathing). So if he gets off of that drug then he can get off of the respirator as well. Yeah.
They are going to tell us more this afternoon. We don’t know at this point if that is a delay in surgery or we get to avoid that all together. For now the blood is going in the right direction and he is doing better than he was last week.
More to come. From Wiens Family Fun
