Wednesday 10/29/14

Another great day for Ava Jane!!  She has been able to ween down the oxygen assistance from the ventilator to 40%!!  They have will continue to decrease by 5% until she gets to 20%. They have also begun weening down the nitric oxide and she is at 15% on that. They removed the central line that was in her belly button which they derermined was no longer needed and did not want any additional possibility for infection.  

So since they removed a major lead, she had been doing so well on weening the oxygen levels -- look what Mommy got to do for the first time today!!!



It is safe to say that today was a very good day!!  

Matthew had to go home and teach his class tonight, so I had some excellent alone time with my baby girl. I got to FaceTime with the boys later in the night and got to send some good night kisses from the iPad -- not the same...  

Looking forward to another good day tomorrow and an even better weekend!
