Outside

We got to go outside today!

Sent from my Fire

Thursday

Just chilling with my iPad and olives!

No more fever, praise the Lord!

Update

Jack's final chest tube was removed yesterday! This would normally be about the time when we could be going home. Except Jack's sats are still in the low 80s/upper 90's and they don't know why. :( Initially they were thinking it was a respiratory problem, but the xrays are clear. Dr Devejian was hoping that by removing the last tube Jack would be much more comfortable and breathe deeper. He certainly is more comfortable and is very active, but his sats still haven't improved. There is talk of doing a cath to see what is going on with his heart. All indications on the echo from Monday were that everything was perfect.

On another note, Jack has decided he is so fed up with being there that he vomits every time we try to give him oral medication. And he has recently spiked a fever. Needless to say, we're getting pretty fed up with being in the hospital, and we are all ready to go home!

Please pray that Jack's 02 sats rise to where they should be (90-95) without any further medical intervention! And that his temperature last night would be a quickly passing thing.

Thank you so much.
