Getting unhooked


This afternoon a lot of good changes happened. Corinne's chest drain tube, Foley catheter, and the temporary electrical leads were removed. However, the pain and anxiety medication has made for an overly tired little girl. This has required a feeding tube to be installed to make sure she takes in the necessary calories to help her mend quickly.

Allison was able to cuddle with Corinne for about 1/2 an hour before she went home to check in on J and Meredith (and hopefully sleep through the night).

Right now she is sleeping peacefully. She has no idea that in 45 minutes I have to awaken her for another feeding. She looks like she could sleep all night if we would let her.
