Reintubation Update #2: Getting There

Quick Details:

• Ayden's morning chest x-ray looked much better. Praise the Lord!
• They changed over his medications last night in preparation for possible extubation today. 
• He is a sleepy boy, but he wakes up occasionally to check out what everyone is doing. 
• He drops his sats during IPV respiratory therapy, so they are considering either dropping the therapy or changing the way they do it. They are continuing his hit therapy.
• Ayden has not tolerated his feeds; his stomach is not digesting anything. They are hypothesizing that his gut is sluggish because of the sedation.
• They pulled his subclavian line.

I can perhaps share more once they have rounded.
