Breathing tube is OUT!!!

Whew, what a relief. They were going to take it out this morning but delayed it again because he wasn't awake enough an dhis lungs were still a bit wet.

Aroung 3:30 they took it out and he did so much better. He is now breathing on his own with a little oxygen tent around his head. The are still monitoring him very closely to make sure he breathes deeply enough. The also took out his cathetar. So we are moving inthe right direction with less tubes for poor Drew

He has been moved to a new room where the babies go right before moving up to the cardiac unit. He can now cry but it is very hoarse sounding. I love to hear him cry it has been so long.

The library here is closing gotta go.

  • Hi Heather,
    I am so glad to hear that Drew is improving. I cry every time I read what you have written (I'm sure that's a mom thing) and I pray even harder. Enjoy the weekend with your little family, soon you will all be home together. Stay strong! Lisa
    P.S. Tell Jason if he thinks this is rough, just wait until Myah starts dating!LOL
