On the mend

Sorry it's taken us a while to update but Lincoln is doing great and recovering FAST! On Wednesday they took out both IV's in his neck and two of his chest tubes. Yesterday they took out the chest tube and the IV that went into his heart. They also took him off Milrinone (that helps his heart pump) and they transferred his blood pressure medicine from IV to oral. After the Glenn surgery, it's common for his blood pressure to be high but they want to keep it in a lower range so use medicine to help that for the first little while. Now that he is off all IV medicines and is eating, he can go to the recovery floor. Last night he was back to his old self and just smiling away at us!

Here's some pictures of the last couple days!

Lincoln is a tummy/side sleeper so even with all the tubes and cords hooked up to him, he still tries to roll to the side.

Lincoln was so excited to eat again!

Lincoln told us to tell all of you THANK YOU for all your prayers and thoughts! He's feeling so much better!
