1 week from surgery


Today is Hudson's week anniversary from his surgery...and he is doing fantastic! Last night they removed his IV's in his left hand and right arm so his hands and arms are IV free for now...very nice to see more tubing removed! His echocardiogram looked good yesterday so he is now off all the heart meds. They are gradually weaning narcotics and the ventilator and plan to be off the ventilator at some point thursday! WOW!!! We have come so far since this time last week...and it feels so good!! He is trying not to throw too many temper tantrums..but with the Blank/Reeves gene pool he has been given he just can't help it every once in a while...and man does he have some strength in those little legs. I guess a little feisty is a good thing..he will keep daddy and I on our toes! Daddy had to go out of town for the next 2 days so Hudson and mommy are going to have a sleepover and get some good bonding time in:) Thank you everyone for your continuous love, support, thoughts and prayers...it truly makes all the difference!
