Day 70


Parker did great today! Surgery went well. They removed a very small portion of his bowel and put him back together. Appendix removed too. There are possibilities for post op complications, but we know Parker will stay strong. He is still on the vent and is being weaned off quickly. Thankfully he is tolerating the weaning well. He will remain NPO (no milk for him) for several days. Once the bowels start functioning we can start him up on feeds. Although this is a set back, it's a step towards home. He did great throughout the day. Has pain meds on standby when he needs them. Once again, we have such a strong kid!
