Due to the fact that Greyson is heavily drugged, he tends to drool a lot.\u00a0 It’s kind of funny at times.<\/p>\n

Tonight Jaemi (one of Greyson’s old NICU nurses) came and brought us dinner.\u00a0 She actually came and sat with us on Tuesday while we waited for his PDA ligation to get over with.\u00a0 Then she offered us dinner tonight since we thought Greyson would have his other surgeries today.\u00a0 Well even though they were canceled, she still brought us dinner.\u00a0 A home cooked meal at the hospital, it was awesome!!<\/p>\n

Greyson’s pressures are better today and the Dr said during rounds that he had really showed some improvement over the last 8 hours or so.\u00a0 The new plan is to back off the muscle relaxer drugs tomorrow and see how he does.\u00a0 Hopefully he can get off these soon so we can interact with him again.\u00a0 While on these he is essentially paralyzed.\u00a0 He can twich a little but that is about it.\u00a0 Not so much fun for the parentals.<\/p>\n

Anyway he will also get circumcised tomorrow as long as he is continuing to do well.\u00a0 As far as the rest of the surgeries go, they are going to wait till week after next.\u00a0 This should allow his lungs to heal and strengthen before the next round of big surgeries.\u00a0 While that adds another week to the waiting for the surgeries, it does mean we will have the surgeon that we like so that will be good.<\/p>\n

On another note, we talked to the discharge nurse today about some of the going home stuff.\u00a0 This is still a long ways off, but it was nice to actually be talking for real about it!\u00a0 She was absolutely amazed at our insurance and said that she had contacted a home nursing company and it looks like that whole process should go fairly smoothly when we get to that point.\u00a0 Again this is still awhile out, but it was nice to be actually working on some of the details to bring him home!<\/p>\n

So nothing much to report, his lungs continue to be fragile but he is doing better.\u00a0 A week and half and he should be ready to get these other surgeries over with and work on getting his settings down so he can come home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
