Caleb's chest closure was a success! They did it right at his bedside and had no problems. All of his levels are great and he required minimal additional support to keep his levels great. I am guessing that the doctors are going to start weaning him off the blood pressure medicine again. They tried some this morning, but Caleb wasn't interested. Now that he is put back together, we might have some better luck.

His blood sugar levels have stabilized and his oxygen levels are great with 35% oxygen saturation on the ventilator. I would guess that we will try to go down to 25% soon!

Everything seems to be great now and everyone is very optimistic!

  4. May God's hand continue to be with the doctors and nurses as they care for this angel. It is our prayer that he will continue to improve. May God continue to be your strength and guide as your family continues on this journey. Praise for answered prayers! Know that many people are praying for him, you and your family. May you find comfort and rest in his loving arms.
