Retractor out.

Over the past few days Evynn has been weaned off most the blood pressure support meds. She continues on the durectic sand was able to get enough fluid off that yesterday they were able to get the retractor out of her chest. Now she is only partially open.  Her surgeon thinks they will try tomorrow for a full closure. If her blood pressure tolerates a full closure then she will be able to be extubated and we could hold her! They have increase her comfort management as yesterday she was quite aware of all the discomfort. Today she was finally able to sleep restfully. She continues to improve one day at a time.
