Heading in the right direction...

Beckett did get lasix after his blood transfusion to help with fluid retention. And last night he had a fairly restful night. He did lose 20 grams, but I wasn't surprised by that. He wasn't tolerating being on his back last night, and did have a cluster of episodes that she had to stim. His oxygen is hanging out around 25 percent.

His 4 am chest x ray revealed that his diaphram is not as high, and the air in the belly and the intestines are lower. His 5:30 am bloodwork is looking better. The transfusion helped boost his hemaotcrit up to 39,  and the CRP didn't change at 1.6.

All in all, everything is heading in the right direction.
