Today was another "desatting" kind of day. The little man would go up and then come down, then go back up and then go down. However, at 9:30PM we might have found and answer, the kid slobbers. Apparently they suction out his mouth, but he had a bunch in the back by his throat. After that he has been fine. We were finally able to get rid of the crazies that were in our module today. The one mom was so loud that I think it actually bothered Luke. It didn't help that she was right next to him. I know it is good to read to your kids, but to sing and dance and clap was a little too much for me in a NICU. After they were moved the room was so quiet. I don't think I have heard it that quiet in a couple weeks or ever. Luke did lose his preemie friend Lily. She was discharged today, Luke gave her a salute by "desatting" as she was wheeled out. After I gave Luke his "bath" he was wide awake. That is where the pictures came from. Hopefully tomorrow we will be able to do some more weaning on the ventilator. Slowly we are working our way off the thing.
