Riley Day 36

Happy Anniversary to my wife Julie whom is the love of my life and mother of two beautiful children. We have been married for 6 years now and as we talked about over dinner we would not have changed one thing. (maybe 36 days in the hospital)

Today was rather uneventful for Tyler. He has maintained good fluid control and we will see about reducing more of his medication on Monday when the full staff is in. We did get news that it would not be unreasonable that we could look to being released by next weekend as long as things continued to progress.

Here is the list of things that Tyler has to accomplish:
1. Eat on his own.
2. Show that he is gaining weight.
3. Reduce his fluid behind his lungs to a tolerable level.
4. Show that breast milk does not increase the fluid behind his lungs.
5. Step down the number of medications that he is on.

It appears that he is already doing most of these, but the big one is eating.
