d a wonderful day yesterday. She continues to tolerate some of her feedings. They have been able to drop many of her vent settings and she was at 21% oxygen saturation most of the day. Her nurse yesterday, was the same nurse that checked her in to TCH last Friday. When I talked with her she was really excited to see so much progress in Caroline. She even mentioned that she thought she looks bigger already.I did not go by to see her yesterday because I felt horrible...
I had a checkup with my OB yesterday and my blood pressure is still very high. They started me on an additional medicine for that issue. Then, last night, my incision looked icky and I called my OB. She suggested I go the ER to check for an infection. Ryan and I went to the Methodist Emergency Clinic on Kirby and 59 - it was wonderful. Turns out I did have an infection and they gave me an IV of antibiotics and then sent us home with more antibiotics. I feel so much better!! As many of you know, Ryan HATES hospitals. While we were waiting for my prescriptions to be filled I could not find him. Turns out he found a nice massage chair to lounge in... here is a picture.
So glad to hear you are feeling better and the wonderful update on Caroline!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling better Katie. Really great to hear the nurse had seen so much progress. As for Ryan - that feeling about hospitals is genetic in the men of the Cooper clan!
