Team Caleb we need your prayers. The hospital called and has decided to do surgery now to close the PDA. This is scary with him on ECMO bc of the risk or bleeding from the blood thinners. Also they have to leave his chest open for 24-48 hours after surgery and this runs the risk of infection. Please pray that everything goes well and there are no complications.
10 am: Everything went well with the surgery today and the doctors said Calebs lungs never looked better. They did a trial today of taking him off the ECMO and he did well so the doctors are now in the process of removing the canulas from his neck and Caleb will be ECMO free....GREAT NEWS! ♥♥♥
Change of plans. Cardiac surgeons had an emergency surgery come up so taking him off of ECMO will have to wait until tomorrow.
