1. Vent gone- YAY!!
2. Glucose way down from 304 yesterday to 94 this morning. Elevated glucose is a common response that the body has toward trauma (surgery). Yesterday, it continued to rise so insulin was ordered.
3. Loosing IV in neck and several other drugs- milrinone, insulin and others.
4. Will place an NG and do a test run- only 5ML per hour. She was up to 25 per hour at home so this really is a tiny amount. BUT we need to see if her little tummy can handle even that small amount without refluxing because she has had no food in her stomach for 2 months now. PRAYING this will work so we can get rid of that darn NJ!!! And praying for no reflux as it is so painful for her even without her chest being newly open.
5. Her amazing nurse, Sarah, is back today!! Loved her yesterday and so blessed that she will be in charge of Celia's care for the next 10 hours! She has a 2 year old nephew with Down Syndrome who also had OHS a couple of years ago.:)
I'm sure there is more I am forgetting but my mind is focused on getting back in there to scoop her up!! Only 16 more minutes!!!!
In Him,
E
