update for today

Carson is doing well. They did not get a blood gas today, so they did not wean on his ventilator. They will be getting labs tomorrow and hopefully, if all is good, will wean to 21 on his rate. The neonatologist believes they will wean about 3 more times and then start on his pressures. 

He did well on taking his bottle, so they are going to let him try two bottles tomorrow at 9 am and 3 pm. They also are feeding him directly into his G-tube with no tubing or venting, so this is a step towards just having a button. 

Please keep praying for the care conference, clarification, and expectations and goals for Carson.  Thank you everyone!
