Day 18: Recovery
Vivienne's recovery from surgery is going well. She needed a little bit of extra sedation last night but ended up having a very peaceful morning and afternoon. All of the nurses and the doctors are amazed at how good she looks and how low her settings are. They ended up weaning the ventilator a bit and have completely taken her off of Dopamine. Mom and dad were once again able to participate in her care by taking her temperature, changing diapers, and swabbing her mouth with breastmilk.
Dave and I are hoping tomorrow is another uneventful day so they can keep chipping away at her drugs and vent settings. We can't wait to watch her make progress. There are so many milestones to look forward to!
