Just a short update...I was able to talk to the cardiac nurse and asked how long Kate's chest tube fluid output needed to be below 45cc's for her to get it out. She told me that Kate's fluid output has probably been lower because she is not eating. With a fontan surgery, they won't consider pulling a chest tube until a child is eating well. It gives a much better indicator of chest tube fluid output.
Disappointing news, but I know that God is working all for good in Kate's body. He always has good reasons for what we consider to be delay's and unexpected bends in the road. I know He is trustworthy and always is FOR us.
The little guy next to us is going home tomorrow, so could you please pray that we get a good roommate? His family is so sweet and we have enjoyed them.
PFK!!
