We had an early-ish visit with Evan this evening. We were at the hospital for shift change. It's pretty interesting to hear the day nurse debrief the evening nurse. It's reassuring to hear them say "yes, that's what he does for me too" or "oh good, that's what his settings were last night". Evan has a great team that is watching out for him.
Evan did have a little more urine output today. The doctors are still hopeful that the medications from last week just need to get fully flushed from the system. Since Evan's organs are less developed, it will take him longer to flush the meds.
Tomorrow are the Monday morning scans. Evan will have a head ultrasound and X-ray to check on lung development. If the head ultrasound comes back clear, they may move to scheduling those every two weeks.
Evan was back under the bilirubin lights so he wasn't able to sport the Bills' blanket for he game. He did listen to the game along with the rest of his roommates (5 other boys and a girl). I think Evan was pleased with his 2 week old birthday present of a win. When we left he was listening to the pre-season Sabres game. Apparently the NICU likes to impress the importance of supporting the home teams at an early age!
