Post Op 6

Aidan is waking up today!! They just rounded on him and they asked if he had his Vec Holiday yet and Kirsti replied, "He is getting a VERY LONG Vec Holiday today-he's coming off of it" I was so excited to hear that! They also disconnected his Foley catheter and if he is able to swallow his secretions and they go into his g-tube, they will look into taking out his chest tube. He has lost some weight, it was all water weight, and is down to 5.4kg (they wanted him at or under his dry weight of 5.5). We will post pictures of him waking up as it happens.

I am so happy to hear that they are going to start waking Aidan up. I can't wait to get there. This is going to be the longest week at work. Talk to you soon. Love, Barb
