Halloween - October 31, 2013

Owen had a better day today.

His lungs looked better.  He still had a couple of episodes, but this is going to be normal.  He is having some blood come up through his breathing tube.  This is probably just irritation from the tube.  He was on ventilator settings that simulated CPAP breathing all day.  He did good.  Hopefully he will be extubated on friday or saturday and be on the real CPAP!

His liver is still not functioning great, but it is moving in the right direction now.

His urine and stool output are still good.

The ultrasound from a couple of days ago still hasn't been read yet.

He lost weight again last night.

He mainly rested today and will continue to do so overnight.


Praying for:

  • Kidneys to function better
  • Liver to function better
  • Adrenal glands to function better
  • Bones to grow stronger
  • Lungs to function better
  • Infections to stay away
  • Extubation to work
  • Eyes to work correctly
  • Heart problems to heal



  • The great pumpkin

    First time to swaddle
