10.20.17 Spine Surgery 12

Aimee had a good night overall. Her heart rate has started to come down. We are having a really difficult time increasing g-tube fluids, so no progress away from IV yet. We were able to get her out of bed and into a hoyer lift this morning, which she didn't appreciate, but did tolerate. The PT was upset that Aimee is still in this little space as she felt that it is compromising her care. With additional pressure from her and the nurse and the surgical team, we have finally been told that Aimee has a new space being prepared. We are hopeful that later on today we will be able to bring her wheelchair into the new room, modify it somewhat for her new form, and maybe even get her to sit in it for a short time tonight. Finally!!
