Thanks for the prayers!

After thinking for a while they might need to intubate again, his mother suggested a bi-pap (mask that fits over the nose and mouth), which worked at bringing up his blood oxygen levels. Also, two chest tubes to drain fluids. So far, from both tubes: 700 cc ( a lot!). Slept well, breathing much easier.


Keep them prayers, light, and good vibes coming. . .

Yes, Meg has always been one of my favorite nieces. She worked as a CNA while she was in college. Good experience for being both a mother and a daughter, lol! She's very special. . . .

gentle thoughts to and for you as well.

Keep going, Tanner. This is the rough patch. In addition to being a merciful pain reliever, morphine suppresses breathing ability. Glad they didn't have to intubate. Hang in, sweet little boy.
