“I’m walking on sunshine, wooah…”

We’re going home!! Contingent of course that his sats don’t drop in the next 2 hours.  All is looking good though!  Thank you LORD for bringing us this far!!

Going forward: He still has a hacking cough which will likely hang around for awhile yet. I’ve also been warned that he will have breathing episodes over the next 2 to 4 weeks while his body and lungs heal. His immune system is very weak and he’s even more susceptible to getting sick now than he was before. So, please pray for continued healing and for the whole family to stay healthy.

Yay for home!!

Ander had a GREAT night. His oxygen saturation numbers were better than we’ve seen them yet, and that includes when he was ON oxygen!  We still have to make it to 3pm today (full 24 hours) before they’ll discharge us. Here’s praying he keeps it up and shows that he’s ready to go home!!

In the pic above, the second number down, the 99, is his O2 saturation. Yay for 99!!

Well, they just rounded and they’re going to try another trial run with taking Ander off the oxygen this afternoon.  The doc thinks he’ll have to go back on it, but, as he reminded me, he’s been wrong before (even with Ander he was wrong with when he thought he’d be able to “nipple”; Ander was ready long befor the doc thought he would be).  When we came in the doc thought he’d be here one to two weeks; today marks exactly one week.  So, we hope and pray that Ander shows he’s ready to be off oxygen and go home tomorrow.  Thanks for the continued prayers!
