Tube Weaning - Day 3

Day 2 was another good day with Audra eating more orally than on day 1 and the most she has ever taken! At her 9 pm feed, you can tell she is worn out from the day and falls asleep shortly into her tube feed. She is only getting tune feeds at 9 pm and 3 am. Tonight we are skipping the 3 am feed. And then the 9 pm feed will go and the tube will come out.

This morning she is hungry but isn't interested in eating. Hopefully this improves quickly.

We have another blood draw this morning too. Hopefully this will be her last one for this clot! We have an appointment at UofM on September 10 to look to see if her clot is dissolved. Depending on how everything looks determines if we get to stop her blood thinner and the accompanying blood draws or have to continue them both for 3 more months.
