Journal entry by Jill Dacy —
Lennix was able to have her chest tube pulled early Saturday morning. She continued to do well and slept quite a bit that morning. The surgery team was happy with her progress and she was discharged Saturday afternoon.
Saturday evening, she felt pretty warm. We checked her temperature and she definitely had a fever. So, back to the hospital she went. She ended up needing some blood and they gave her an antibiotic.
The surgery team did another x-ray and all still looked well so after another dose of antibiotic, she was sent home Sunday afternoon.
She does seem extra tired but overall has tolerated the procedure well. Now we wait for the results…
