waiting

Gabriel usually wakes up from surgery extremely angry and in pain. The anesthesiologist tried something new to see if he can wake-up a little happier. He is taking his sweet time waking up right now. Hopefully when he decides to wake up he is in a better mood than normal. He sure looks cute sleeping the meds off though. When he wakes up our next goal is to get him to drink. Hopefully it will be easier than prior surgeries where he has been too mad to drink. Adventures with Gabriel are always interesting. Currently Gabe and I are watching Gabriel's heart rate. He is sleeping and on medication but he is hanging out in the 70's and has been as low as 65. We are not too worried, his O2 levels are still in the high 90's.
