Sorry for the late update but I was waiting for doctors and whatnot. Micheal is doing fine but there was a small hiccup overnight with his blood pressure, which dipped lower than it should have. It is back up to normal after he got some additional fluids and now he just needs to sleep off the effects.
The doctors believe this is a result of a one-time medication they gave him and not an indication of anything going wrong that’s related to his surgery. They were trying to clear up the drain issue he’s been having (which they seemed to be able to do by the time I left yesterday) but one of the doctors thinks they may have overcompensated a little bit. He was monitored continuously while it was low and all other vitals and cardiac stuff stayed looking just fine.
I’d venture a guess this has delayed his release by a day or so but only because they’ve been consistently overly cautious and I’m certainly a big fan of that. I’ll be back this evening with another update. ❤️

Yes, make sure everything is good before release. You had thought it was going to take a lot longer but one day at a time. Hugs and kisses Mom
