Carter is doing quite well. His cardiologist team (3 cardio docs) came in this morning. Carter is planned for a sedated echo tomorrow morning with a possible discharge Monday afternoon or sometime Tuesday.
His biggest physical change is his breathing rate is about half what it was prior to surgery. This morning he seems to be like regular Carter. He sucks his right wrists, he chatted and cooed and had his eyes wide open. It is amazing how fast these babies can recover from such drastic surgery.
Carter is chugging right along to almost his pre-surgery personality except for the rapid breathing which is gone. I hope you enjoy his picture after his bandages were removed. Last night his nurses were Chloe and Stephene and this morning he has Amy and Jackie. Jackie is from the Infant Unit and is filling in today. Carter's nurses have been great, especially Judy in the PICU.
Love,
Alan & Kristi
