The last 12 hours have been a mixed bag. Thankfully we did get sleep, albeit in blocks of two hours at a time.
The good--
*Matthew's oxygen saturation levels have remained high. This is very good news!
*He's eating pretty well.
*Although not himself, his sweet disposition is shining through.
The not so good--
*The doctors assessment this morning= no visible improvement from yesterday.
*Matthew is still laboring to breathe, despite the breathing treatment every 4 hours and multiple doses of steroids.
*His heart rate is dropping down pretty low (similar to the bradycardia he had after the heart cath). Not sure why this is.
*Sounds like today is more of the same...breathing treatments and steroids.
*Doctors aren't sure why he's still struggling.
So, unless he makes a remarkable improvement in the next few hours, I think we're going to be here for a while. My poor, sweet baby Matthew. How I pray this just goes away!!
