We went and checked on Christopher and he is doing great. He hasn't been on too much pain meds and hasn't been too fussy or grumpy. He will most likely start being bottle fed the nonfat formula tomorrow. Depending on how he does with it, he may get moved to breast milk or just stay on nonfat or low fat formula for a couple of weeks. If his plearal caths are not draining
horribly, we may be moved out of ICU by Wednesday, and then home for the first time. He will go home on a few meds but should be pretty much good to go. He has been bright eyed today which is awesome considering he had a 2 hour surgery this morning. We love you all, and will keep you updated on his progress.
Great news! Now we keep praying the surgery will do what it is supposed to, quick healing and strength to go home. What a homecoming it will be!
