Surgery Update

Mason had his 3rd procedure to close his belly today. The procedure went well and Mason did great. When he returned from the operating room, his vent settings had gone up slightly. They will most likely stay that way for a while and then they will wean him back down once he wakes up from the anesthesia and starts breathing on his own.. His pressure went up to 23, rate up to 45 and oxygen to 30%. The surgeon also mentioned that he thinks it will only take 1 more procedure to fully close his belly (probably next week). After this, they can start working to get him off the vent.
