Recovery Day 2
Blake is doing great in recovery; all his vitals are very stable. We have been staying with him and spending a lot of time cuddling, which has been fantastic. Tiffany is getting to experience all of the joys of a typical newborn including a dozen diaper changes a night, and Blake confusing night for day. As tiring as it is, these inconveniences are a welcome blessing. Blake also started taking a couple of feedings from a bottle today like a champ. He is proving to be like his Dad because he's hungry all the time! Tomorrow, Blake's surgeon, Dr. Fraser, will examine him and give his determination for the rest of his recovery. Keep your fingers crossed that Austin is in our future.

Looking forward to hearing Dr Fraser's release so y'all can get back home and back to normal life with your little ones. Though, i know the grandparents are definitely going to be having separation anxiety! beez
Hi Brian, Your former PS1 cube neighbor here. Glad Blake is doing well. My family is very familiar with Texas Children's. My nephew had the Glenn Shunt at 6 months and will have the Fontan at 5 years. He is 2 1/2 now and doing awesome. Check out www.itsmyheart.org for great organization started in Houston. Dr. Fraser did my nephew's surgery and is so wonderful. My sister is a great resource if you ever want info from someone who's been through this, let Eric know. Take care - Joy Mickelsen
