Max is a Man with a Plan

Not much has changed with Max today. He is still stoned off his gourd, and is therefore sleeping the day away. He is still intubated, and will remain so until at least Monday. His scope and potential throat surgery are scheduled for the afternoon on Monday.  Once again, he will be chauffeured to HSC and he will undergo all the procedures there.  It's good that Max has a plan now, and that - whatever the issue - it will all be made clear and any problems will be addressed properly.

Now for some good news. Max is fat. He officially weighed in at 3150g (6lbs 15oz(ish)).  This weight is most likely off slightly due to the ventilation tubes and possible water retention from having an IV in for a day. Still, that's an increase of 220g, and if 10% of that is "false" weight, then he's still a little porker. The other bit of good news is that he had another negative MRSA test. This is only the first since his last course of treatment, but hopefully it'll stay gone and we can stop wearing those horribly hot gowns.
