All Closed Up Again

This morning Dr. St. Louis closed Lynnea's chest up, and she has been doing well all day. She now only has one chest tube in, instead of two, and she has some Pacer wires in as a precaution (so far they have not had to use them). Tomorrow they will probably ease up on her muscle relaxants and sedation some to see how well she can handle that. They are also planning on resuming her feedings again tomorrow (they had to stop them today so that she could have the anesthesia that was necessary while they closed her up). Each little step of progress that Lynnea makes is something to be excited about and grateful for, and we continue to pray that she will continue to do well so that we can eventually go home.
