Well, as the saying goes, "No news is good news!"
Not much new info to update. The anesthesia's wearing off & he's still been doing well! All his stats have been stable. They've got him on 4L of oxygen until he's fully alert then they'll start weaning him (probably in the morning). He has already started going longer stretches between his doses of IV pain meds & even tolerated taking Tylenol by mouth!
His 2 biggest complaints when he's awake are pain from the 3 chest tubes & that he's thirsty. He can only have ice chips for today/ tonight then they'll try him on clear liquids in the morning. If he tolerates that well then they'll order real food!
As for Me & Dan, we got into the Ronald McDonald House! Dan's staying with Ethan tonight & I'm here at RMH to try to get a good night's sleep (hard to do when nearly 8 no preggo!), then I'll go back over to the hospital in the morning & Dan may come back here to RMH to nap :)
We will update again in the morning. Goodnight all & thanks for your continued prayers!
