28 December

After a bit of discussion between Scott and Peter, they have decided to hold the extubation attempt and surgically ligate the duct. In a way, we’re relieved, in another way it is heart surgery, and very scary.
Some nice things – his digestion is still good, and more ‘curds’ are appearing in his bag. His urine output is good. I got to give him a bed wash and change his nappy – my first time! He was very good throughout these procedures (saturating 92-96%) and cleaned up a treat. His blood gases and his urinalysis are both good, and the cranial ultrasound is due again today.
Surgery scheduled for tomorrow.
