We have a blood pressure!!!!

Dr. Spray washed the chest today. His
chest is still open and ECMO machine has heprin running as well to keep blood from clotting... So all the bleeding in his chest sits there and clots... They washed his chest out and removed clots from around the lungs and heart . Allowing the lungs to expand more will of course benefit him. They turned down the machine to see if could tolerate it... He had a blood pressure on his own!!!!! This is definitely a good sign... Plan is today to rest his body.... Tomorrow rest his body ... Monday they are going to take him back to OR to see if he will tolerate comming completely off ECMO..... Fingers triple crossed. Thank you to each and every person who is praying for my boy and for my family..... I had a moment of weakness but today is good !!! Tomorrow will be better!! We are moving in the right direction... Kiss the ones you love... Tomorrow is NEVER promised!!!
