We Moved to 5A!

After spending 93 days in the PICU, Lynnea was finally able to move to the general floor, and the rumor is that we are still hopefully going home early next week (we're still aiming for Monday, but we know better than to get our hearts set on a specific day).  She seems happy in her new room.  She was in a good mood all day, which was nice.  We are working on getting her medications on a schedule that will be manageable at home (I refuse to give diuretics in the middle of the night), and we're working on switching her feeds to bolus feeds instead of continuous.  Lynnea needed oxygen again this morning, but this afternoon we were off of it again, and we're still hoping that she won't really need in when we go home (we always have it on hand, but we don't want her on continuous oxygen at home).  This evening she willingly tried to take a bit of a cookie; we took the piece of cookie out of her mouth after she bit it off because we didn't want her to choke on it, but I was really impressed that she was willing to even try to take a bite, and she managed to do it without gagging.  This is very exciting.
