10.28.21 Trach floor 2

Nearly forgot to write a quick update today. Aimee is stable and settling into the new unit. This is an area of the hospital we have never stayed in before, but from our understanding, aside from the PICU, this will be where we stay from this point forward. New faces to meet and new rapport to build. We do recognize a few, some of the RTs from previous stays and our MCC team will some of them be familiar. It takes a couple weeks to really build trust with the new unit though, so it will be a bit of finagling til then. 

The new attending gave me a very pessimistic expectation of how long our stay would be. He said that it would take us several months to get back home. We are hoping that is not true, but do know it will be more than one month more for sure. The gut issue is our real unknown wildcard. 

GI did stop by today and they still have not been able to communicate together with general surgery and our primary GI doctor. Essentially they told us to hold tight until Monday and make no changes. We are building some serious patience muscles.
