Monday, 3/14

Another good day today! Dinky was a little up and down in terms of his "A's" and "B's" (apnea and bradycardia episodes) but his oxygen requirement stayed low and in general he recovered quickly. The exciting thing is that as of tonight he'll be at "full feeds"!!! This means he'll no longer get TPN, just milk! This is a huge accomplishment! His nurse today commented on how feisty he is becoming. He tries to push or kick away her hand whenever she does anything. They all comment on how strong he is (and what a cute nose he has :) Several of the nurses were gathered around his "house" the other day commenting on his nose and I told them they were just being "nosy". I'm not sure they got it, it's a Moody thing :)

There's not a whole lot to report these days because they really are just trying to keep him stable on the vent until he grows stronger. His CRP was down to 2, that was good. His weight was up 10 grams which isn't bad. So all in all we're just "steady Eddie".
