Ayden has been readmitted to the hospital and has moved into his room on the floor (in the cardiac pod this time). His chest x-ray was a little bit worse than the last one, but none of them have been anything like what they were after the Glenn when he was having trouble getting off the ventilator.
The course of action right now is to give him some IV diuretic doses (IV is a more efficient delivery method than is using his feeding tube) to get rid of that fluid. This, of course, necessitates him having IV access (the last thing that occurred before discharge yesterday was the pulling of his IV line). It only took five tries to get one in. Fun, huh?
At any rate, he is sleeping comfortably, and will hopefully continue to do so until radiology comes in at around 5:30 or so to take an x-ray and wakes him up. There's always something in the hospital to look forward to...
