Good Progress

Emma has been recovering very well since her surgery. Each day she has more medicines taken away and her vitals look great. The doctors are very happy with her progress. On Friday they took out her chest tubes and pacing wires. She will not need a pacemaker. Tomorrow she will go back into surgery to put back in the trach. Since going back on feeds, she has been tolerating them well. She will most likely need a tube inserted into her tummy for feeding. They have not weighed her since her surgery, but she is looking much bigger. At last weighing, she was around 5 pounds 11 ounces. If she continues to recover well, I suspect she will be back at Mission soon.
