Natalie has had a big day today so far. She got her chest tubes removed and the rest of her pace wires out. She also got the iv in her foot removed as well. She still has the iv in her arm, but that is okay. I think once it goes bad, she will not need another iv.
Her chest xray still is not great on the right side, so we need to get that cleared up. She is still on a little oxygen, but they are going to turn it down some here in a bit.
She had an echo this morning and a chest xray. She actually walked across the hall for the echo and walked back. Of course she protested the entire time, but she did it!
Poor thing is totally wiped out right now and taking a good nap. I am hoping to get her back up later and have her sit on the couch to color vs the bed.
Larry flew home this morning to be with Carter. Carter has done incredible this week and we could not have done it without all the amazing help. Yesterday was the first time, he really started getting sad and asking when we would be coming home. So this morning, he jumped up with excitement that daddy was going to be home.
I will take some pictures later and post more tonight, but I just wanted to give a quick update while I could. Natalie has become a bit "high maintenance" to say the least, but who can blame her.
