It looks like we might be on the 5th floor by Tuesday or Wednesday!! Ben got his nasal cannula out today. So he's breathing on his own. The only thing he's still getting by iv is his lipids and TPN. And TPN is getting turned off today. He gets one as needed meds by iv too. But nothing else continuous. Everything is being switched to oral. Well via ng tube for now. Eventually by mouth. He still has his pacer and one central line to deliver meds. He won't lose the line until he's about to go home. The pacer, we're not sure when he will lose that. He had to be paced a few times yesterday and today. He can't go home with that. I was talking to the nurse and she's going to ask when we can start breast milk feeds. His Chylous was so minor that they hadn't really wanted to do the monogen. But they did just to be safe since he was leaking small amounts of breast milk. So maybe well get off that formula sooner rather than later. And he will get a private room on 5, and as long as he doesn't need a face mask, we can walk around the unit with him. So exciting! I can't wait to get up there. One step closer to home!
