Movin on Up Today

Bernie did pretty well yesterday. She ate a couple small meals, drank a bunch of apple juice, and tried to go potty. She also got to start her warfarin back up last night. 😊

 

On the flip side, she also threw up a couple of times and had to have a catheter put in early this morning around 4 or 5 to help relieve some of the pressure in her bladder. If you've ever had a foley in you know it can be tricky trying to urinate afterward. Let's hope this resolves today. 

 

We will be headed to general care up on the 11th floor. It's a little more difficult to update as my patient needs tending. I'm sure you understand. 

 

Our big goals for today are to try and use the potty, walk around a bit,  see the big sisters, and settle in upstairs in general care.  Her chest tube continues to drain and we will work toward getting that out in the next few days. She is still sounds pretty junky and even though her chest x-ray has improved from yesterday, we have some more coughing and clearing to do today. 

 

Thanks for following along and another update will likely come tomorrow. We have about 24 hours of whole family time together until next weekend. Big hugs from us all!❤

We appreciate all of your ❤, 💪🏻, and 🙏🏼!
