Landon is in ICU and did great

[Scrappergirl]

Landon had his surgery yesterday, they ended up doing a AVR with the Konno procedure. they put in a 21 mm porcine valve. He did well thru the surgery and thru the night. they just extubated him this morning and now he has nasal cannulas which he hates and is constantly pulling out. He is still pretty out of it which is ok. His heart sounds awesome, no more washing machine and barking dog noise! Worst thing: they couldn't find the 2 units of blood that i had donated and had to give him general stock blood. They did find it but too late. $862 down the toliet.

Will post more later.

The next couple of days will go by fast and Landon will forget the tubes and the fuss. Best wishes for a great recovery!

They did find it but too late. $862 down the toilet.

Will post more later.

Perhaps he didn't get it, but someone in need will, so it's not really down the toilet.

Unfortunately, they can't give directed donor blood to anyone else. He did end up getting a little bit last night so got a partial unit.

thanks for all the support, prayers and thoughts. Today he was extubated, got his foley out and had some clear liquids. Tonight he is pretty groggy so they are changing his meds a little bit. He also had some issues with his BP today but that is under control now. So we will see what tomorrow brings.
