Remzley's bilirubin count has gone down and thankfully we are going to be giving this nice thing back to Praxair today or tomorrow. When we left the hospital on 11/22 his level was at 12, then on 11/23 it went to 14, 11/24 it went to 15.8, 11/25 it went to 16.8 and then on 11/27 it peaked at 17.8 on 11/28 it dropped down to 17.5, and on 11/29 it went down to 16.8 and then on 11/30 it was down to 15.4. The Dr said that with as good as he is eating and with the significant decline that we could discontinue using the bili-blanket and just wants us to watch and if he turns yellow to go back over the hospital to get tested again.
Everyday of going to the hospital to get him tested really sucked.. i am very grateful that it is finally declining and that we are making progress.
