Lots of changes for eli. Once he was off the vent, things start happening very quickly. He has all of his central lines out, nasal canula and neers are gone. He still has a picc line for meds. They changed his feeds from a constant drip of breastmilk to bolus feeds every three hours. He's tolerating them really well, which is a really good sign.
Our key to getting into the step down unit is his feeds. Which he's sailing through thus far with no issues. Rumor has it that Friday would be the day. Monday at the latest. They won't transition him to the floor over the weekend. It's just not ideal. Once he's in step down. He's gotta prove himself he can go home. Gain weight off of what they are giving him and hold his own. We're hoping discharged by Friday!
Can you believe it! DISCHARGE is in sight too!
Eli will have been in the hospital exactly one month tomorrow! Which is his one month birthday! Ahhhhhhh. Time seemed to be so slow but now its flying by! Before we know it, we're back here again for his Glen procedure in just a few months! :(
