How low can you go Carter?

Saturday, 4/19/14

Carter is getting prepared for his first Easter tomorrow and will have some cute pictures for you all to enjoy.  He had more Occupational Therapy today and did well with it.  The Occupational Therapist gave him a belly massage and flexed his knees to his chest today as an added therapy to help his bowels move a little better.  He has been 36 hours without a stool so Dr. Lugo has also ordered a suppository, sorry Carter.  He has done well with his breathing today and was lowered to 1 L/min, the lowest that you can go on the high flow nasal cannula.  He is at 25% oxygen concentration so the next step will be trying to wean the concentration to about 21%.  So far he has done well however he did have one desaturation into the 60's since he was lowered but he compensated by increasing his breathing and after a minute or two he got himself back above 88% saturation.  Carter, Katie and I wish you all a great Saturday and hope the Easter Bunny is good to you tonight!
