Eleven weeks 5 days old

Evan is still intubated while we wait for the swelling to go down in his throat. Unlike previous intubations, he isn't completely out of it. He was awake for a good portion of the morning. You could tell he was not quite himself, but he did give me a couple of smiles.

As long as he was in the hospital, he had another echo to check on the PFO and Pulmonary Valve Stenosis. Both are about the same. The cardiologist believes Evan will grow out of both. He said it would be okay to follow up as an outpatient in 6 months. Great news! :)

Evan started eating again; starting at 18 mL. The doctor said that she doesn't want to give him sedation if he's just awake and hungry. Hopefully they'll be able to increase it a little tomorrow. Mr. Pants is used to getting as much as he wants!
