We're going home...today!
We had a little set back last night. His potassium was too high. If your potassium is too high (especially in heart babies) it can cause arrhythmias that they can't shock him out of. They put him on more Lasiks (I don't know how to spell it but it's the medicine to clean out your system). He had to get another IV in him to give him the medication. Poor guy! Then they had to come in the middle of the night to get blood samples. Because he has had so many previous IVs and shots, the Phlebotomist couldn't get a good sample so the IV team came and after four tries in his feet, they were able to bleed out a sample. What a strong little guy!! His potassium is still a little high but they are letting us go home! We can't wait!!!!!
