CPAP - A Good Day!

Good evening. - Toby's had a good day, he continues to seem more like himself. He's been trying to lift his head up, and he gets ornery when the nurses change his diaper or give him a bath. He's been more awake and wide-eyed, especially when someone talks to him. They're trying to wean him off of the forced air pressure into his nose/airway, and his sats dropped a few times, so they bumped it back up. This is difficult for us because we just want him to be able to breathe without this extra help and come home. His sodium levels continue to be stable. They stopped giving him IV fluids, and he's now getting all of his nutrition through a continuous supply of milk! :) Tomorrow they should do the MRI. Our prayers for today are for Toby to be able breathe completely on his own, for the MRI to happen tomorrow as well as for its accuracy. They're probably going to have to put him under general anesthesia for the MRI, so pray that he tolerates that well also. One last request is for Bruce's parents, especially his mom. Bruce's grandmother (his mom's mom) is not doing well, and she was called to Texas to say her last goodbyes. This was expected, but it's obviously still difficult to say goodbye, and also to be torn in two directions (wanting to be here with Toby and then in Texas with her family). Thank you for lifting us up - God continues to give amazing peace and love. Goodnight.
