Brandon's ventilator setting rose a little bit and his blood pressure dropped. They where worried that he might have an infection but couldn’t find anything. One of the steps they took was to switch to a different type of ventilator. They hoped that this would be a step toward getting off any kind of ventilator. Once he was placed on the new ventilator for a day, he actually got worse. The good news is that they switched him back and he seems to be doing really well today. The results from all of his tests today looked good and we should be back on track to improvement.
Katelyn’s x-rays of her lungs had been “ a little hazy” for a couple of days. On the same day that Brandon took a step back, they also discovered that Katelyn had pneumonia. They monitor everything so closely that they caught it in the very early stages and instantly began treating her with antibiotics. She seems to be doing much better today and things are looking good again.
Katelyn has a lot of spunk. Everyone once in a while she gets excited and starts thrashing about. However, the nurses have discovered she likes curling up in a ball on her stomach.
Katelyn is really charming in this position.
The diapers that look so big in the photos are actually really small.
