Well here we are! Just a quick update this morning: Taylor's drainage as slowed significantly and the doctors will check back with us after their first surgical case this morning (around noon) to see if it picks up at all with activity.
So far so good.
So here is what I understand the plan to be:
1. Check drainage levels
2. Feed Taylor regular diet to see if fluid output increases (so far it has not! :)
3. Decide whether or not to pull the chest tube and then xray or xray and then pull the tube. Her xray Sunday was clear and her chest free of fluid!
4. Check bloodwork
5. Decide if she is going home and when and what the follow-up will be!
We are almost out the door. Thanks for all the prayers and support via phone, email, FB, etc. Sounding like tomorrow is a REAL possibility!!!
Thanks especially for the delicious meals and snacks. We have recently had yummy enchiladas and grilled Mahi.
Looking forward to a long July 4th weekend!

Sure hope tomorrow's the big day, Amy! We'll cross our fingers! Taylor sounds like such a trooper with all that she's been through! You & Jason must be on pins & needles about when you can get her back home. Best of luck for her continued healing & in getting Taylor home soon!
