Day 4: Little Miss Grumpy

We got back late from the hospital tonight so this is going to be a short post. Viv is still doing fine, but she didn't really take any major steps forward today. Since she has been doing so well they were weaning her from various treatments and she started to experience a little difficulty late this afternoon. She was pretty agitated all day. They switched her pain medication to morphine and she received a blood transfusion to resolve low hemoglobin levels. The rest of her settings didn't really change much today.



"Why can't they just leave me be?!"

The good news of the day was that mommy got to change a diaper and Viv's urine output continues to be adequate, so no more catheter for now. We're hoping for a restful night tonight, for Viv and for us.
