Seven days after his open heart surgery, Brave Little Prince Cathal is giving us an excuse to celebrate. Oh Yeah!
The pacemaker has been switched off all day, his little heart is doing ALL the work ALL by itself. Oh Yeah!
The Ventilator has been completely switched off this afternoon and the tracheal tube removed. Oh Yeah!
Cathal is still all doped out – he will need some detox when this is all over, the poor thing! – but he is awake enough to look at his Mammy and the Dad, to try to smile at them, and, though his voice is not in working order yet, to try to give out. Oh Yeah!
So today has been a good day, with lots of progress.
There is a funny little music in my head this evening, and my mind is toying with a little dance that looks like this…
But where are my celebratory doughnuts???
