The Latest

Daniel's eye surgery went well and we will know in a few weeks when it
heals if it helped his eye situation. He is still intubated but on
room air and they are weaning the settings overnight. Daniel was very
sleepy from the medication during our visit and is still groggy. As
he increasingly wakes up, he should be able to breathe more on his
own.

Sofia had a good blood gas this morning so they weaned her ventilator
again. She is finally making a bit of slow progress. Next week ENT
will scope her to find out about whether and why she may have a
narrowed airway.

Oh I'm glad things went well today with Sofia's blood gas and the surgery, thanks for posting a follow-up. I'm sorry you have to wait so long to see if the surgery helped his eyes.

Great news all around. Cousin Layla says, "Good job, big cousins!" Ok, really she's just passed out in the cuddly blanket her Aunt Christie sent. But I'm sure she's *thinking* about the great job her cousins are doing! Love you guys.
