Day #3 - ICU

Aine was removed from the biPap machine this morning to do a trial on how her lungs would handle it & placed on the high flow. She has been doing well up to this point so I don't know if she will be going back on the the bipap or not. They did an x-ray and I'm waiting to find out the results of that.
She is still running a low grade fever (between 100 & 101) - They just drew blood to run a culture to rule out any infection (3:30 Pm)
She is "sleeping" alot which is good.
Her dressing was removed from her chest this afternoon & only the tubes & Pacer wires were re-dressed. It's pretty scary to think that her chest is uncovered & open to all the elements, but I'll just have to pray that her chest is all safe.
She is back on feeds, so I think that is making her a little happier. (what girl doesn't like her food??)
Right now, it's really just the hurry up and wait part of our stay. Hopefully the wait won't be too long though.
