Day 3 post op am

Last night was much better than the night before. Macsen is now just on Tylenol and they have turned off Milrinone and put him on oral Enalipril. He has a lot of secretions they are having to suction and his left lung still looks bad but chest pt should help. Chest X-ray and echo today showed no fluid on his lung so they won't have to put another chest tube in. Still waiting for rounds - it's the weekend and they take longer- to find out the plan for the day. Hopefully it involves removing some tubes and wires so I can hold my baby today.
He looks better - not as swollen. You can actually see the whites of his eyes!
