Day 26 - back to CV Acute

We were transferred back to CV Acute (the less critical unit) this morning. We're in a private room, Hooray! Look at all this space for activities!

Santi is in really great shape. He is only on a diuretic and pain meds as needed. They are giving him ibuprofen and Tylenol with hydrocodone for his head aches. As per usual, he's eating like a champ. Yesterday he was on "room air," which means no oxygen support, for a few hours. He did fine. His sats hovered around 78-81. Today he's had a few desaturations and has been on and off of tiny bits of air. At the moment he's on room air and satting 80, I'll take it!

Now that we are back in CV Acute he is actually getting quality rest. Abe and I are guarding him from nurses, making sure no one wakes him up unnecessarily.
