Ayden is on the loose... jail break confirmed

Will have more on this story tomorrow.

If you can, please say a little prayer for Ayden's friend Faith, who was 5 doors down from us at the hospital.  RSV struck her too, but much harder than Ayden.  She was still in the hospital and it might be a while for her.

have a good night!

Jail break??

Talked to the pulmonologist this morning and he thought if things go well tonight and oxygen requirement comes down, there could be a jail break in the near future.  They also want to see where his O2 requirement on room air is. If it's high 80's they will be happy... so pray for 80's! 

Otherwise nothing to report...  which is a good thing these days! 

Happy Valentine's Day Everybody!

The Doctor came in this morning and gave Ayden the OK to walk around the room.  So he wandered around for about 5-10 minutes - rather boring and not much to get into.  Noticed that his equilibrium was a little off or he was a little weak, or even both.  But he found the electric paper towel dispenser and before I knew it had a bundle of paper towel (at least we don't get charged for them...lol).

Everyone seems pleased with his progress. As usual, he has to do things at his own pace.  When people push him, he pushes back and not in a good way... so his preemie traits shine through.  :) 

Since then he has cooperated with the staff and done some good breathing treatments to open up his airway. 

Once again, paper towels are the "toy" of choice.  In addition, his theme for the day seems to be "no more...___" fill in the blank.  Which means anything anyone tried, that was his response.  All in all it's a good day.  Even though the rooms a spacious for a hospital room, after a few days, the walls always get closer and closer.

Hope everyone had a good weekend.
Dawn, Chris & Ayden
