| His tummy is almost flat! |
Well Aiden is 13 days old today and already has been through five surgeries. Aiden is now requiring 100% O2 and is requiring a vent pressure of 28. His lungs are not handling all the pressure that has come from the reduction of the omphalocele so he is relying alot more on the ventilator. The NICU doctors are concerned about continuing with surgery but the surgeons think all will be better once his abdomen is completely closed. They think they will be able to perform the final closure on Friday. Aiden has also started retaining fluid due to the increased pressure and from organ manipulation during the surgeries. His legs are so swollen and it looks so painful. He can't even open his eyes because they are swollen shut. Craig and I are so scared but are trusting in God to get us through.
