No news is good news...
...but good news is better!
Sunday was very quiet in the ICU. It has been about 24 hours since the last breathing spell. The doc upped the remember-to-breathe meds which seemed to help. He is receiving 21-28% oxygen in the air he breathes (the air you breathe right now is 21%). The milk is being steadily increased (from a very low starting dose). His bilirubin is creeping up and we may see some more blue light tonight or tomorrow.
Thx!

That is so good that Mathias is only on 21-28% oxygen! The less he needs the better! I couldn't believe that the medicine they give them for apnea spells is "caffeine", at least that's what Elle was given. Yep, give me a shot of caffeine and I'll wake up!
I'm glad you're continuing to have good days. The more "good" days he has the better prognosis and he's started out great! He's gonna be another miracle baby!
I enjoy keeping up to date on your website!
