Carter has been taken off the ventilator and is again showing us what he's got. It's his time to shine. So far he has not been able to maintain is oxygen saturation levels above 85%. He is on CPAP and they are doing a blood gas to see if they need to add a rate to help him out a little. Based on the looks of it I am pretty sure they will be adding a rate. Aside from his breathing troubles he is doing well. He is tolerating his feedings and he urinating normally. Dr. Raj said that they will be doing another echocardiogram in a couple of days to take a look at the PDA and make sure it is still small enough to leave alone. They are apprehensive to give more Indocine since they do feel it contributed to his urinary issues the past few days. Keep him in your prayers as he starts his battle with breathing.
Keep fighting and breathing, Carter. We know you can do it! Love ya!
