Today ended up being awesome. Lilly got both atrial lines out, hurrah! She then got both her central lines out of her legs! She is only on oral meds now, all her IV meds and fluids have stopped. She is drinking milk whenever she wants to. Although, she may go back on a little bit of fluids because she is not drinking much.
They had to sedate her early in the day to get the atrial lines out. Then again later to get the central lines out. She was kinda zonked out tonight from all that. By morning all that will wear off and I imagine she'll be back to her normal self!!
Best of all tonight is that we got to HOLD her!!!!!!!
Eric even managed to hold her for a little, defective clavicle and all.
We even got to give her a good sponge bath tonight. Lots of fun.
The plan for tomorrow is to remove her chest tube!! Also, we will be moving out of the PCICU and into a regular private room come afternoon!!! That means she can have as many visitors as she pleases and for however long as she likes!
We are so excited on how she is progressing. We look forward to tomorrow.
