Natalie had a pretty good night again last night. Her chest xray finally looks good, so we are hoping to get her off oxygen either today or tomorrow. Her stats are still a little crazy, so we need them to stabilize more. Dr. Forbess stopped by this morning to check on her. He said her oxygen would still be low until her hole in the fontan closed, which could be a year.
Natalie finally walked some today, of course she fought me the whole time. She walked to the playroom on our floor and back. Poor thing was so worn out by the time we got there, we pretty much turned around and came back. She has been napping ever since.
Natalie and I finally got to facetime last night with Larry and Carter. She was so happy to see "Bubba", but she really misses home now. She keeps asking when we are leaving the hospital.
If Natalie keeps up the progress she is having, we should get discharged sometime next week. Now, we still have to stay for a few days for a follow up appointment, but we would be out of the hospital.
Thank you all again for all the prayers! Today, I ask for prayers on her stats stabilizing more, her appetite to continue to get better and for her to poop...nice I know, but she needs to.
