Monday Setback

Mondays… This morning at around 915am MDT Hudson had a few heart arrhythmia’s and his blood pressure dropped. This happened about 30minutes after they pulled one of the many lines from him.. It was planned to pull the LA (lateral arterial) line this morning but I guess Hudson’s little body just didn’t like it. Now he’s on a couple new drugs which doesn’t make me happy. First one is esmolol which is a drug that basically slows the heart down a bit and also considered an antiarrhythmic… He’s also still on epinephrine which doesnt make sense because the esmolol is going to counter the effects of it (??). The second is midazolam which was given to him as a sedative. The pacemaker kicked in and got him back on track. He was about to go into NICU today but this will probably delay the move for a day. Gabby and I are a little disappointed and anxious about getting him into the NICU so we can hold our little man. I did visit Hudson last night around 10pm till about 1145pm and he was doing very well. We pray this is just a minor setback and that Hudson’s strength gets him through this quickly.
