Getting Better
So... our little man is on the mend, most of the meds he was on have been stopped. Everett coughed and pulled out his breathing tube 4 hrs before the docs were going to do it. Then they put a c-pap on him which is a mask held in place by a bunch of head gear and straps, he didnt like that either and pulled it off twice. So now he is just on high flow nasal canulas with 35% O2, and his stats and blood gasses are holding steady. Now we will try and slowly turn down air flow, and O2% to 21% which is what is in the normal air.

Off the VENT!!!

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR AMAZING SUPPORT AND ABUNDANT GENEROSITY!!!
 Everett had a miraculas day today! He coughed early this morning and his vent tube came right out! A sure sign that he was no longer in need of the support. It was somewhat alarming to recieve the phone call this morning that he had ex-tubated himself, and was a bit startled. But a blessing none the less.... His legs are kicking, and his arms are reaching to now pull out his oxygen tubes.Those will need to stay in  for another day or so, while he is still in ICU. We will hopefully be out of ICU this next week! We are so incredibly relieved! He has come so far and we now can feel our trip home will be soon!! Much love and a huge gracious thank you for all of your support during the last few weeks!
The spagetti dinner was an unpresidented success thanks to all the beloved friends and family!! Everett could feel the loving energy each of you sent his way!!
