From blood work this morning, all values are steady, x-ray is same as the last two days, and her drainage isn’t doing too bad. We will be moving her to the regular recovery floor any time now.
Just gave her some chocolate milk—first drink that is not water or apple juice. She really likes it. Gotta work her back up to solids after not having anything but juice for the last six days. Nothing like forced hospital fasting!
I have been able to help out a bit with her care. Yesterday I got to help with switching out a catheter in her left jugular artery and with taking out her foot IV. Good experience—and a good way to get over being nauseous—for when I actually start working in the NICU.
