belated update for Friday and Saturday
I’m sorry that we didn’t get an update on the site yesterday. I know it’s a bit nervewracking to be without information for so long. Even though I’m doing a lot of the updating, I still check the site constantly in case someone has written a comment or has had a chance to update. We really appreciate every comment that has been left, and knowing that so many people around the world are thinking of Nolan all the time.
I don’t have a lot of information to update you with, but I’ll give it my best shot. Yesterday, Nolan’s CO2 exchange became an issue again. One particular blood gas reading was up about as high as they are comfortable with, then went back down close to normal, then back up again. Today it remains high, and they are looking to other options to help Nolan. One option is steroids, and another is a high frequency oscillating ventilator. I don’t have any details about either of these options, but I wanted to share where we’re at right now. Tonight, Nolan can use your prayers and love more than ever, so please share everything you’ve got.
Thank you,
Maria

Lovely little Nolan, you just keep on growing little guy. I’m sorry you’re having trouble with your gasses, but those docs are really really good and they’re gonna get it all worked out. You just keep feeding on the love from your momma and daddy and all of us out here in the big world. It’s some mongo big love, light and bouncy and round and fuzzy…I know your momma and daddy, and you just couldn’t have picked a more wondeful family to be born into. PS Thank your Aunt MayMay for putting this amazing blog together. I am grateful.
