I spoke with this lovely lady on Tuesday evening about P. She heads the conscious sedation team for Peds at OLOL! L informed me that after further reviewing P's medical history and because of his weight/size, they feel it would be better for him to receive general anesthesia. With IV sedation, the patient is expected to breathe on his/her own the entire time. With general anesthesia, P will have a secure airway, just in case. She also said that small babies tend to unpredictably metabolize the IV meds. We feel good about this decision. I am excited to meet my Twitter friend IRL now!
No word yet on a time for Monday...
We are off to go run a few errands in preparation of P's baptism on Sunday!
Have a great day :)
