Better Every Day

Jereth had another good day today. The arterial line in his leg was removed this morning and his central line in the neck came out tonight.

There was talk of moving him out of intensive care to the surgical unit. However, the surgical unit was full and I was not happy with the idea of going back to the NICU (newborn intensive care unit) where there was room and nurses used to handling the high flow air Jereth needs. So when Jereth still needed a higher level of oxygen mixed with the air than the nurse practitioner said he would need to leave intensive care, I was not at all unhappy to stay.

We did get moved to a less private room in CICU (cardiac ICU) so a child coming out of surgery could have the individual room - but at least I get to stay with Jereth tonight.
