Blake had a checkup with his Austin cardiologist yesterday (Tuesday), and everything looks good. His sats are staying in the mid 80s (and they expect those will continue to go up), and the bi-directional Glenn shunt is flowing very well as is the pulmonary artery. This means that blood is flowing freely to his lungs and his body. We will have another appointment in a month.
Blake is slowly getting back into his old routine as well. We are trying to convince him that just because nurses woke him up every three hours at the hospital, it is not necessary to do the same now that we are back home (somehow we don't think he understands our reasoning). His body is doing well adjusting to his new circulation, and it seems like his headaches from the increased pressure in his head are fading.
All in all, he's doing great!
