Day 59

Well, we are officially residents in the CICU again. :( Around midnight last night, Holden started having some issues... His sats continued to drop, he was vomiting more and he had some scary diapers. He was tachypneic (meaning he was working really hard to breathe), his temperature dropped and he was hypothermic, which caused his heart rate to drop as well. He was scary pale, and pouring sweat. The doctors on call for the floor didn't seem to know what to do with him, so the ICU doctors came up and decided to bring him back. His temperature is back up now, and his work of breathing isn't as bad as it was, but he's still lethargic and hard to wake. We have no idea what's going on, and the doctors seem to be stumped as well... All of the tests we've run so far have come back clean. I'm terrified that they'll tell us it's a heart issue, again. If all of the tests and labs come back normal, we'll have to assume that's what it is, and I really don't want to hear that news. He'll have another echo today to see if we can pinpoint anything. Until then, we're just watching and anxiously waiting. We'd really appreciate any extra prayers you can send up for him today!

(And the girls are going to be here tonight... I've been so excited that they finally get to come, and now all of this happens. I so didn't want to be back in the ICU for their visit... We'll make it work though!)
