Day 5 Recovery

Everett had a very good day. His cardiologist discontinued the telemetry (heart monitor). We were able to take him on a short walk around the unit. We still don't know when Everett will be cleared for discharge or when we will be able to go home. The doctor wants to make sure he eats well and has gained weight. He will also have another X-Ray tomorrow to check the fluid around his heart and lungs. Please pray for the fluid to be gone completely and for Everett to surpass expectations during his feedings. The goal is for him to take 2oz in under 30 minutes. Just now he ate just under 2.5 oz in 20min. He is doing a great job so far! Please continue to pray for healing and for no complications. We are excited at the possibility of being discharged tomorrow but also nervous to leave the doctors and nurses at the hospital. Thank you again for praying. We hope you have a wonderful Easter celebrating Jesus.
