Getting Better

Getting Better
So... our little man is on the mend, most of the meds he was on have been stopped. Everett coughed and pulled out his breathing tube 4 hrs before the docs were going to do it. Then they put a c-pap on him which is a mask held in place by a bunch of head gear and straps, he didnt like that either and pulled it off twice. So now he is just on high flow nasal canulas with 35% O2, and his stats and blood gasses are holding steady. Now we will try and slowly turn down air flow, and O2% to 21% which is what is in the normal air.

Surgery Date

 Everette's Surgery is scheduled for tommorrow 2/3/10 at 7:30 am  they are going to do what is called a double switch operation, which is quite complex of a surgery. He is also going to have a pacemaker placed at this time. They surgery itself is suppose to be about 4 hours long the doctor's said . There is a problem with a Tricuspid valve that is also leaking that the Doctor's hope the surgery will relieve pressure on that valve so it is not quite so bad.
