Update and Tummy Time

Well, we are still playing the waiting game. ENT found a few small things, but nothing significant. They decided to give Carson some more time and then try to extubate again. Well....he failed extubation again (for the 3rd time). He had a CT scan and they found what may be causing the problem. I won't go into too much detail, but basically his bronchial tubes are collapsing and being compressed, so not enough air is getting through to his lungs. The doctor's are still reviewing his case and trying to decide what to do next.

Carson is now getting some tummy time each day. He's a strong little guy.


We are now able to hold Carson. It's hard to move him with the breathing tube and everything else, but they finally decided that it's been long enough and he needs to be held more often.


Just for grins and giggles, here's a cute pic of Melina I just had to share.
