2 days with a new liver\u2026 doesn\u2019t seem real. Lincoln is doing so well and progressing as he should. He\u2019s given us some scares, but the team assured us they are normal post-op hiccups and they have resolved everything thrown at them. Today, they removed Lincoln\u2019s tube from his nose and weaned him off oxygen. He was able to breastfeed today and that helped soothe him a lot. His color continues to improve and his labs are improving. He\u2019s still a little groggy and isn\u2019t acting like himself yet, but we think it\u2019s coming soon! He\u2019s so strong and doing really well \ud83d\udc9a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More details – Lincoln\u2019s drain that is helping remove fluid from his abdomen (the surgical side) was putting out a lot of volume yesterday evening after they started a heparin drip to make sure his new blood vessels didn\u2019t clot. While concerning, the team just knew he wasn\u2019t ready for a blood thinner. They stopped that and gave him a blood transfusion. The drain looks much better today. Since Lincoln is on so many steroids to prevent rejection of the new liver, his blood pressure is a little high. To combat that, the providers start a medication to lower his blood pressure. Lincoln is still pretty sleepy because he\u2019s a pain pump that the nurses control and he\u2019s on precedex, kind of like an anxiety medication. These are keeping him calm and out of pain. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
