No Procedure

   Happy to report that the surgery scheduled for today was cancelled! Lyla's output continued to decrease, yesterday totaling 40ccs. So things are looking good. Feeds are restarting tomorrow and we are hoping all will go well. We will be able to have a better idea if the Chylothorax has repaired itself once she starts getting milk. If the drainage comes out clear we are good. If it comes out whitish or milky, then there is still a problem.
   Ears, nose, throat Dr. said the throat is swollen and the left vocal cord moved fine, but the right has limited movement. Basically nothing can be done and we are to schedule an appointment in a month to get it checked out again.
   Morphine was changed to .023 the last couple of days and will be changed to oral tonight to continue weening.
   High flow is the same 4L 30%- she's still doing quite a bit of "tugging" when she breathes so they are keeping it the same.
   Ativan .7
   Lipids
   Last couple of days has had a cough and on and off fever 38.5+c
   Milk tomorrow!
