Weds 12/17/08 - - Recovery Day 1

Ava was pretty swollen (typical from being put on the artificial heart-lung machine) the day after surgery, however, was showing signs of significant progress.

The external pace maker was fine-tuned overnight so that it would only pace at pulses under 100BPM and was eventually turned off completely by day's end.

Overall, the night and day was spent by the PICU (Pediatric ICU) staff tweaking meds to try and stabilize Ava's pulse and blood pressure.
