We are Out of the PICU

I just wanted to write a quick update and let everyone know that Toby has moved to a regular floor!! It is so crazy because he is in the same room as my son "lived" in for a month and a half.
The CT scan results showed that his shunt is working fine. So, thankfully, he doesn't have to go through another surgery!
He has been on his mist collar all day today and is doing well. The next time he falls asleep they will probably put him back on the ventilator so he doesn't get too tired.
Because they have to line up supplies and nursing care, it will still be a few weeks before they can go home. Moving out of the ICU is a step in the right direction!

    Hi Carrie and Bruce, praying for you and your family and Toby to come home. I bet you are missing your big boys and wanting your whole family to be together.
