The procedure is done and we are with Landon. He is sleeping and has a support in his airway since he is on some heavy pain meds right now. The rest of the day will be about pain management. We won't know how effective it was for at least a few days hopefully by the weekend we'll see a little bit of a difference as far as the fluid goes.
He has a new chest tube which is draining well and once they pull the airway support we hope he will be able to start drinking some clear liquids and hopefully move on to solids later tonight or tomorrow . We will be in the cardiac icu overnight and as long as his pain needs to be aggressively managed.
Hope and pray all goes well.
