What a great surprise it was to walk into Morgan's NICU pod today and find that she had been moved back to the regular ventilator around 11:00 am this morning. And, if that wasn't enough good news for the day, they had already weaned her settings once since the change, and were able to do so again while we were visiting.
Morgan really has come a long way in the last couple of weeks. In addition to being on the regular ventilator again, she is staying around 50% oxygen. She is completely off all the IV medications and now on full feeds so they removed the IV line from her arm today. Her feeds are up to 21cc, which is the max for her current weight. And most exciting of all, she should be ready for kangaroo care again in the next day or two. Once again, thanks for all the prayers and support through all of this.
This feels good, but I think you should hold me for real tomorrow.
