Andrew had a rough night last night. His heart rate shot up to 300 for a while, his breathing became labored, so his 02 levels dropped down to the low 70's. They had to put him on a ventilator, but he is still on 'room air' which is good. He just (Fri. 10:30am) got transferred over to Arnold Palmer's Cardiac ICU. Here he has his own room and at least 2 nurses dedicated to him. There is a concern with the amount of fluid building up in his lungs... he is going to be pretty heavily sedated over here so they can keep his vitals under control. So, here we are, waiting until the new nurses come and tell us we can see him. As of now his surgery is definitely put off till Monday. He did eat for the first time from a bottle last night, Mommy (Bess) got to feed him first, then Daddy (me) got a crack at it later. He was a trip! I am trying to upload a pic of him eating.... will have to try picture later... tachnical difficulties..
