news that the meds are working and his infection is not getting worse. But
it is so hard for us to be patient, we are looking for improvement every
day and not really seeing anything big. His oxygen requirement has been
pretty much the same, between 50-60 percent versus room air of 21 percent.
For reference he was in the mid 20s during his first two weeks. So when I
arrive in the morning and it is at 62, I am discouraged. At least now it
is 53, but will probably go back up later today.
We got another brain scan back this week and are thankful to know all is
good. His feedings have increased again and he is up to 5 oz of milk a day
(over 8 feedings via tube). He is tolerating and digesting his feedings
very well.
Today is day 7 of the antibiotics to treat pneumonia. Praying for patience
and healing over the next 7 days.......
