Switch came through surgery just fine today. His blood pressure was a little low when I went to see him, but as the "knock out" drugs were wearing off his numbers were coming up. I also got to see the echocardiogram being performed right after surgery. It was great to see that everything was looking good. The doctors and nurses feel that this, hopefully, last procedure will expedite his discharge from the hospital. He is back on a ventilator, but they want him off of it tonight or early morning. Dr. Kanter said the plan was to have him back in the step down unit by Monday and home by the beginning of next week. I can't believe that in six days he will be a month old! Poor thing has not been outside the hospital. I can't wait to get him into the sunshine so he can feel the breeze. I have taken so much for granted in the past and this kid has opened my eyes to what is important.
Danny , Katrina, and the kids came out to visit today and Katrina made dinner :) It was so good and so appreciated! I have had ENOUGH of hospital food and McDonald's!! I don't have pictures to post tonight, but I will get them in the morning. I am going to bed because it was another trying day. Thanks again for the continued thoughts and prayers!! We love and miss you all.
