I never know the proper spelling of that but I imagine the sentiment is understood...
Teo was just extubated before 2pm. Yah! That means they took the oxygen tube out of his right nostril. Now, that's all we saw but the tube went clear down to his lungs and was helping him breathe as well as inflating his lungs to the right pressure post-op. The doctor said this was early for extubation and a sign of his positive progression. Yea!
They also unplugged him from the pacemaker - keeping it close by but unplugged - since he's not ever used it. Yay!
They put him on oxygen in a different form - the same as he was on before - but this way, he is still using his own effort to breathe. And he's doing a great job breathing - now grunting. Now moving a little. Yahoo!
Next they're taking out his pee catheter - back to diaper changes. Who knew that could be such a Yeah!
We've been told what to expect to be removed next but its hard to remember...we are revelling in going in the right direction! We pray he just keeps going.
Yah. Yeah. Yea. Yay. Yahoooooooooo.
Karin and Ryan, thanks for sharing your amazing journey. I've been thinking of you and am so thankful that things have gone well so far. We'll keep praying for Teo's recovery!
