Not going to dallas for right now

Hello all. So last night was a really long night. Kenadie went into respitory distress so they had to give her IV lasix to try and pull some of the fluid off her chest so she could breathe better. As for the echo. There is pressure on the left side of her heart. So her cardi said we will watch it and once she is recovered from this surgery then they will have her come down and they will run more tests down there.
Right now she is on a no stimulation rule. She is only allowed to have stimulation during a diaper change and a feeding through her G tube. They want her to rest and heal. They still have her pretty much sedated.
They upped her feedings on her tube and have lowered her iv fluids.
I personally am emotionally tired. I want to see the end of this but somehow the end just does not feel that close right now. I know it is just me focusing on the now. But i guess i just need to have my pity moment.
