Today Bridger is 5 months old. It is hard to believe that so much time has passed since he was born. It has certainly been a whirlwind. Bridger spent his first Christmas here on the 9th floor. Uncle Pat spent a sleepless Xmas Eve with Bridger- B was withdrawing from all the sedatives he received to prevent him from extubating himself while he was on the ventilator. He is one feisty guy. I'm very much looking forward to having Xmas at home this year.
Bridger had a fantastic day. He is incredibly happy- smiling and talking up a storm. He loves to have conversations with the nurses. He really seems to have turned the corner- only a couple of doses of Tylenol today! He had an echocardiogram today which showed that the pressure gradients in his aorta and pulmonary arteries have greatly improved. He is off of the oxygen completely and it is looking very promising that they will send him home tomorrow.
I am anxious to be home with all the boys. And very hopeful that Bridger has a healthy future ahead of him!
I going to give him cake and ice cream at Sean's party!
ReplyDeleteBridger, we all celebrate your amazing 5 months. I think you belong on a magazine cover, buddy (along with your beautiful mother).
