I feel like Matthew is making improvement. He seems to respond really well to the breathing treatments, he's able to go a little longer before he needs a treatment, his strider doesn't sound as high pitched, his oxygen saturation is outstanding, and when he has retraction it doesn't seem as deep. All that said, he still isn't better. He still needs the breathing treatments. He still has retraction. He still sounds bad. Poor sweet baby Matthew!
Today is the day Matthew has to get better! If he isn't better by the morning, he'll be back in the OR so our ENT can scope his entire throat. Though it is indicated for this prolonged case of strider, the procedure could further irritate his throat and buy him a night or two in the ICU. So, today has to be the day he gets better!! Thank you for prayers and well wishes for our sweet baby Matthew!
