Paul is continuing to improve little by little. As expected he has some fluid built up in his stomach and they will place a drain to get that fluid off. They anticipated that this was likely and in some ways its encouraging that the lymphatic fluid is in his gut and not his lungs. The tentative plan is to have the drain placed tonight and wean the ventilator. Fontan takedown is still on the table for Monday as well. We wait and see. The best case scenario is that Paul can tolerate being extubated. Hes still fighting and so are we!
