Ava's gas was 35 today. She didn't get the CAT scan done until later this afternoon and the bronchoscopy didn't happen till after 5pm. We did find out the Ava's left bronchi's look bigger and more open and the doctor was easily able to maneuver down them. Praise God! She only got one a couple of weeks ago, so there has been a good change. They also saw no irritation and no secretions. They let her off the paralytic around 6pm and she got agitated but I was able to calm her for a bit by patting her back just like she gets when she gets chest physical therapy. She finally went to sleep with more sedation. We did find out that she has a urinary trach infection. My poor baby has one of those already.
Tomorrow we are supposed to get family photos done for our Christmas cards. We'll see how that goes and hopefully she is not completely sedated ;)
Ava grew to 61.5 cm = 24.21" in length, and her head circumference measured less at 40 cm =15.75".
Thanking God for Ava's continued progress and praying that we can figure her out and get her home...
Looking forward to the photos, you have a beautiful family. Happy Thanksgiving! Love, Maureen
