Anders passed his CT scan and I believe all the other tests he's had in the past day or so. As a result of passing the CT scan, he is now free of his leads and monitors! Anders is now totally free of tubes and wires for the first time in his life!
He took 95 mils of food at his 8:15 pm feeding. That's his highest total by at least 25 mils.
Anders is doing really well. All he has to do is take his full feedings and gain weight. Anders lost 2 oz. last night. I believe the weight loss was because of the overnight CT scan where he was all wired up and had a deep nasal cannula in his nose. He didn't really eat much last night. I think he's going to have a good night. He's on pace to meet or almost meet his full feeding by the 3 am hour tomorrow.
Tomorrow at 9 am, we meet with Dr. Ted Thompson. I fully expect him to suggest we try to discard Anders for a younger, less talented, wimpier baby who has far less fun than Anders. (That was a joke. If you don't follow the NFL or live in Wisconsin, you didn't get it. Please move on.)
I guess we might be boarding in at the hospital tomorrow to take care of Anders essentially full time, while he remains in the hospital.
Looks like my Wednesday prediction will go the way of the New Madrid Earth Quake of 1991 predicted by Nostradamus. History Channel fans will like that one.
The time is close. We know not the day or the hour.
Now it is between Anders and his bottle to determine his release date.
