day, but things should be better going forward.
They were not able to get a second IV this morning so we had to skip
some meds and stop his dopamine as a way to get by on one. About a
half hour before surgery the first one stopped working and we were in
even more dire staights.
Once down in the OR, everything went a litlle a smoother. He is still
out from all the sedation, so they have not taken him off the vent,
but he back in his own room. He is pretty beat up. His platelets got
really low and his skin is extremely fragile right now so he has
bruises and skin tears all over. Hopefully now that this infection is
cleared up and we can deliver better nutruition and meds this will all
clear up.
