Tuesday, 3/15

Sorry for the late update. Things continued to go pretty well today. Today was Dinky's first day without TPN and he continued to tolerate his feeds well. He was desating a lot earlier in the day because he was very awake and moving a lot and crying a lot (you can't hear it you can just "see" it which is so sad). He was also "fighting" the ventilator so they increased his fentanyl to sedate him a litte more. This seemed to help a bit. He's still swollen, especially in his head. In fact, after they moved him there was a thumb indentation in his head. Poor thing.

My favorite part of the day is that I saw him sneeze for the first time. It's amazing how much you celebrate these little moments. When I said "God bless you", it had an extra special meaning.
