Good Morning all! Kade had a pretty good night until about 4 am when he became pretty agitated. The nurse gave him some additional pain meds and he seemed to calm down. His lungs are about the same, a little rattly, but the Dr said that getting off of the vent will help that. I have heard that Tuesday is the goal to extabate (get off of the ventilator) but that is not set in stone!
As you read in the previous post, I was able to hold Kade yesterday. It was like holding him as a newborn. I could have held him all night!! Hopefully the next time will be sooner than later, I will be patient until then.
One thing I noticed, and wanted to mention, I do have other clothes here! :-) I see that both pictures we have posted, I seem to be wearing the same clothes. I didn't want people rushing up here to bring me a new set of clothes!! Those photos document the 2 times I have held my boy in 19 days.
Today's goals are to keep Kade comfy. We also will say goodbye to Dr. Worth, a surgery resident, who has been so kind to us and taken excellent care of Kade during all of his procedures. We wish her only the best, and pray that her skills will help other families in the future as she has helped ours.
