Joe stayed up with Isaac all night..and I came in at 6am..we had breakfast together...and he's headed back to RMH to get some sleep. Isaac has had a pretty good morning. His blood pressure has been a little low..so, they're keeping their eyes on it. And his right lung collapsed yesterday..but, don't worry...it's the same lung that collapsed after his first cath (must be a wimpy lung)...he's getting lung percussion therapy already! He's still very sedated...they are going to try to get him off the ventilator today and start waking him up (boy...they don't know what they're in for!) I'll post again tonight.

Sweet little baby!

That will be great to get him off the vent!

I bet you can't wait for them to wake him up. You know you love getting up with him every 2 hours. Just wait, in a few days he will be back laughing and talking again. He'll be in the bumbo set by the middle of next week. Take care.

Hang in there Joe & Kathy. Terri and I are thanking God that you are in the best possible place for Isaac. We will continue to pray for a quick recovery and withdrawl from the ventilator.

I want to reach through my monitor and kiss on that sweet face!

You guys are doing great. Hang in there and try to get as much sleep as you can. Best of luck getting Isaac off the vent. That will be a huge step forward for all of you.

Thinking about you lots!!!

Holy Cow!! I skip a day reading the blog and look what happens. The day we all have been waiting for, Isaac's has surgery.

It's great to hear that everything went well. He's a tough little guy!!!

Take Care,
Cindy
