Olivia did very well overnight. No changes. Her pressures remain unchanged from last night. She's down to the lowest doses of BP meds they use before stopping. They probably won't change anything more until they close her chest.
She's been urinaring very well overnight. So well in fact, that she's back to her 'dry weight' - weight before surgery & fluids. This means she could probably have her chest closed earlier than they first thought. Whether they decide to do so today, we'll see what the surgeons think during rounds this morning. Either way they are going to have to back off her diuretics (water pills) or they will make her too dry and have blood pressure issues that way. ...what a fine line ...
Outstanding!! Things are going GREAT!!!! I'm so happy for you all! It's been a hard road for you. Hopefully this means it's smoooooooth sailing from here on out!!!! I can't wait till you ALL come HOME!!!!!
