So far, so good.....

Good Afternoon,
So far Braden has tolerated his extubation. He's been resting comfortably all day and so far all of his "numbers" look great. They've even weened his oxygen level down to 35%. He's still on the little nasal canula (sp?) to help with air flow. 35% oxygen isn't too bad considering the oxygen level in room air is at 21%. Thank you, thank you for storming the heavens with all of your prayers for Braden.....God is definitely listening :-) Today is not over, so keep those prayers coming.....

We'll post sometime this evening with his latest progress.

Love,
Steph

I have been keeping up, Steph and Rich, thinking of you often. What a relief to hear that he is doing so well. I am so glad that you are getting to bond with him and that he is tolerating all the extra "tubes" as well as he is. You as parents are his miracle, and he is yours. Love, Gala

Awesome news! Your'e right, 35% oxygen isn't much at all. We'll keep praying for those little lungs to work like God intended them to and that soon Braden will be tubeless! Thinking of the 3 of you often. Isn't a baby just the best gift possible? Now you know just how much your own parents love you too. So glad to hear that you are being able to spend more quality time together with Braden..... it's a precious thing.

love Georgie
