NICU Day 21

Will was put back on the ventilator this morning. Good thing is we made it for 48 hours being off but sweet little Will was just struggling and the decision was made to put him back on. We are okay with it because we didn't want to see him struggling to breathe and we felt he was last night. I guess this is all that begins with parenting and worrying. We knew the doctors and nurses were going to make the right decisions and they did. Therefore we are very pleased with their decision to put him back on the ventilator. They told us this would happen and given his size they wanted to see how good he could do off the ventilator and they were very impressed with his progress. They told us they might try it again next week so we will wait and see. So far he is doing much better on the ventilator and breathing at 21% oxygen which is what we breathe on room air. He is much happier and is able to rest a little better. So all in all this makes momma and daddy happy too!!!!!

Thank you so much dear Jesus for showing us how strong Will is by being off the ventilator. Thank you for allowing the doctors to make the right decisions for our Will. Please continue to be with Will as he grows and strengthens to the man you have created and will continue to create. Thank you for this beautiful and most precious gift of life that we love more than anything in this world. Amen!

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above.
