another stab at the cpap
so nolan has had a good few days, his chest xrays showed a clearing from the consolidation that was either a result of or the cause of his last scary episode. (let’s just say it was scary, kara and i would rather not go through the details) so as of 5 minutes ago, nolan was extubated and put on the cpap with hardly a hitch or hiccup. his mom and mimi are with him now as i write these words, im trusting everything is good and that the little butterbean is overjoyed to get that tube out of his throat again. he has had a little weight gain after a little weight loss, so his numbers are still about what they were when last quoted. eye exams have shown an improvement in his right eye and a holding pattern in his left. the optometrist will recheck him on friday. nolan really hates his eye exams, just like most sentient beings on this planet, so lets hope and pray its one of the last ones. his antibiotics ended yesterday, so the docs think he is out of range of pneumonia (which could have resulted from aspiration from his scary episode) and his chest xrays confirm that he is keeping away from mr. p-neumonia. keep your prayers and fingers crossed that nolan will hold on the cpap for a couple of days, maybe surpassing his last record of around 3 days. nolans dad had a good birthday with nolan relatively healthy and basically on the room air equivalent of o2 supplement. peace to yall.
