It has been an enjoyable weekend. Aunt Garrity stopped by and so we all (Jason, Megan, Lindsey, Hunter and I) went and ate at IHOP. It is the longest I have been out of the hospital room. I hated to leave Gage, but for EVERY ONES sanity it was best.
He is stable enough that we felt alright with doing that. His feedings are up to 22 mL an hour. He is tolerating them great. His ventilator is at 30% oxygen and he is tolerating that well. Dr. Christensen did a trial run of turning the vent off and seeing how he did. He did good for about a minute and then his oxygen saturation started dropping. So, the doctor decided it will probably be 2-3 more days on the vent. They like to wean him off real slowly so they don't end up having to put him back on if he's not ready. Which, sounds good to me.
Jason just left to head back with the kids. So, it is back in the saddle again of living apart for hopefully no more than 4-5 more days. Happy Birthday Angel! We love and miss you. Thanks for checking on us.
