Look at those pink nailbeds! They're beautiful! That's with O2 sats in the upper 80's and hitting 90%
The bottom, purple number is her oxygen saturation.
Red lips and pink cheeks. Waiting four hours post-op to be released.
Natalie being goofy, showing off her oxygen/induction mask that the anesthesiologist made for her. This is the mask that she breathed the "orange gas" through. We are keeping it to practice for the Fontan surgery. (It's a kitty if you can't tell.)
Hugging the giraffe.After we were discharged from the surgery center, Natalie wanted to go see the fish again. So, we went to the cafeteria to eat some lunch and watch the fish. Then, we toured the hospital to look at all the animals...bringing back old memories.
So glad the cath went well and this tune-up was just what she needed. I wished we could have gotten over to see you but will really look forward to the Fontan and seeing you then. Love her pink toes! It's funny what we find exciting in our kids isn't it!?! Hugs to you all :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I first read your post about postponing Natalie's Fontan, I thought, if there's any bright side to a heart surgery, maybe Luke and Natalie's will be around the same time next summer and we can support each other in person!
ReplyDeleteAnd about Laney's eyes, we sure hope they stay blue! They are so bright, I think we have a shot!
