10.19.17 Spine Surgery 9

Thankfully we were able to get a risk nurse from the ICU to coordinate some of Aimee's care last night. Once we added some valium and increased her bipap oxygen, Aimee had a stable night. We are hopeful as today's nurse seems aware and willing to follow our lead. 

We don't have an official plan at this point, but the main hopes for today are to move her from foley catheter to intermittent cath/diapering, to add some PT services to get her tolerating sitting up and being tranferred, to move her from IV fluids to continuous pedialyte through her g-tube, and to move her from IV medications to g-tube medications.
