Two days after surgery

It's been just over two full days since Wyatt's surgery and there are lots of emotions running through us all. 



The biggest being exhaustion. I cannot even begin to explain how draining it is to watch a child recover from a major surgery. There are peaks and valleys every hour related to his recovery, and things that haven't gone quite as planned. 



In general, Wyatt is doing fantastic. There is a bit of caution being taken as he has an elevated heartbeat. They want to have his in the 120 beats per minute range but Wyatt's is still hovering around 140. And that is after helping it come down from 160 where it peaked last night. We are definitely headed in the right direction though as he is probably going to have his drainage tube removed tomorrow and god willing, be discharged as early as Monday!



Anyhow, thank you to all who have sent messages and who have been following the blog. Goodnight from the exhausted parents.
