First I want to thank my wonderful husband for being so supportive and for taking a bunch of the pictures I've posted on the site. Thank you Danny. I love you.
As for our plans. Right now I am planning on going home sometime on Saturday and coming back Monday. Jennifer is going to stay here and Kris and Angie are coming back to stay with her Saturday night.
I would not suggest coming this weekend. Next weekend would probably be better. By that time Lily will have had her surgery and things will have calmed down.
Today's Lily update:
The nurses are concerned about Lily's IV's. Lily was supposed to get a permanent arterial line on Monday when she had her surgery but since it was canceled, she still has her umbilical arterial line plus two other regular IV lines. They don't usually leave the umbilical line in so long because it is so close to the diaper area it can become infected. Her oxygen saturation levels have been staying up, and she is only "de-sating" when she is getting secretions in her vent tubing. After they suction her vent, her "sats" go back up. This is a good thing! I haven't gone back to see her yet today, but if I find out anything more, I will post it later.
That's all for now. Thank you to everyone for their words of encouragement. We need them right now.
Love to all,
Barb
