It's been 48 hours since you coughed your breathing tube out. Prayers answered, the steroids worked! Your voice is beginning to come back. Your airway is open, your lungs on xray show great improvement and your blood gas is back to normal! Your oxygen has come down substantially. I called at 4am and you were at 82% and by 3pm you are at 50%! Wow! You have been on cpap for 24 hours with no assisted breaths! You are doing this all by yourself. Yay!
Your care meeting went good besides your doctor broke my heart saying he didn't think you'd be home by your due date in 5 weeks. But I believe in miracles, in fact your life is a miracle. With God willing, you'll be home by your due date! So you keep going strong and I'll keep praying!
Your doctor is also worried about your eyes. He says lungs can heal but eyes can't. So we are lifting up more prayers that The Lord would guard your eyes from further damage.
Everything about you amazes us! The doctors call you "a puzzle". We call you "our son"! You have strength and determination that encourages us all.
Xoxo,
Mom
P.s. I heart your chubby cheeks!!!

ReplyDeletePraise the Lord!!!! Terrific news!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood news, God certainly answers prayer in his own timing and he can work miracles. I will pray for continued healthy lungs and no further damage to his eyes, in fact they can improve by the grace of God. Sleep well tonight Lauren and Ezra.
ReplyDeleteI heart his chubby cheeks, too! My heart and my prayers have been with this precious baby. God willing he continues to improve. Hang on!
