blood gas update...good news!

Carson spent 29 hours on CPAP and had a pretty good blood gas at 5 am this morning. As a result, the doctors are going to keep him on CPAP for now. If all goes as planned and he tolerates this well, tomorrow from 10am to noon, he will get to trial a trach collar with oxygen. Very exciting!!!!!!!!!! 

We will just keep praying for his ability to breathe and tolerate less assistance from machines. His G-tube has not leaked today which is another answer to prayers.
