Today was a big day of meetings. I practiced the broviac dressing change this morning and then got to change it on Maddie. We also met with the home health nurse manager this afternoon to get things arranged for her "team" so that we can take her home hopefully soon. It could be as early as 3 weeks from now or as long as 2 months from now because Maddie's insurance has to approve her nursing plan. We also got to meet with the GI doctor and ask a lot of questions this afternoon.
Maddie had her eye exam this morning and her eyes have improved! They are both Zone 3 Stage 0 now and she doesn't have to have them checked again for two weeks. Due to this, she could start to be weened of her oxygen. She was put on a half liter cannula today and was slowly lowered to 21%. Madelyn had a follow up ECHO as well and her PDA has closed and her PFO is super tiny (3.4 mm). Maddie also got an ultrasound of her kidneys, which looked okay but with possible calcium deposits. She will be getting more testing to check this.
