Well we just got back from seeing Greyson. He looked pretty good today. Not much new to talk about other than the nurse went to pull out his drain a little bit (if you haven’t heard they pull a little out each day) and there was so little left that the whole thing came out. This is really neither good or bad but will mean the next couple of days are important. They will watch him closely and see if anything drains out of the hole that remains before it seals up. If nothing drains out of that and there are no problems as that hole heals it should mean that his intestine has healed and is no longer leaking into his belly. That of course is what we are hoping for. Time will tell and it will be a couple more days before we know anything definative. If it is healed we will try feeding him again in a few more days after he is all healed up and see what happens then. This is a major hurdle for him to overcome so we are praying that everything has healed correctly and that this episode did not create any new problems.
Other than that everything is looking OK. The nurse couldn’t hear his PDA which is good and his blood pressure remains up. He hasn’t required insulin since Friday night. So we are just thankful that today seems to be one of the good days. I don’t have new pictures because I forgot the camera yesterday and today, but I’ll include one from Saturday that you might not have seen. I forget which ones I send so I’m sorry if it is a repeat.
