Boring
No changes, no test results. He was passed out the whole time we were there, as he has been for two days.
He's still not ventilating as well as he should be, his lungs still look junky on the x-ray, and he still needs far more support than he used to (even a week ago). They wheeled him down to radiology this morning with his ventilator, the nitric oxide infuser, his IV rack, and a tank of helium. Though he was calm the entire time, he wasn't able to tolerate the ventilation portion of the V-Q scan, so they were only able to check his vasculature (arteries and veins). We haven't heard even preliminary results on that or the CT scan, though they expect the radiologist to take a look at some point tomorrow.
I'll try to post some pictures in the next couple of days, as I know these updates have been quite boring.

Jamie and Danielle,
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of you and Andrew and hope your little guy is hanging in. He knows his Mommy and Daddy are fighting with him.
And, please don't ever think your updates are boring...I cherish them.
