Wednesday, 3/23

Well, a pretty good day today. We seem to be holding steady and there really isn't much of a change. I was hoping he would get out of isolation today and his third culture was negative, but the lab wants a nasal swab instead of the swab from his "ET" tube so maybe tomorrow. I'll be so glad when he's out of there! He seemed comfortable today, on his little belly. He loves sleeping that way and is more restful than I've ever seen him. Maybe I should try that and get some rest, too :) His feeds are up to 14 mL an hour so that's great! They are trying to wean him off the Fentanyl (sedative) and as long as he remains comfortable they feel like it's better if he's not so "snowed". We'll see how it goes...
