June 29
Wyatt has days when he simply rides the vent and then days where he even breathes over it while sleeping. It seems very random. The doctor wants to now consult with a pulmonologist to make sure we're not just all blaming his brain damage for his breathing issues since the MRI did not show that the brain stem was affected. Again, we're back to hoping something will show up that's fixable. Either way, we'll be working with pulmonologist if he stays on the vent too so I'm glad he moved forward with the consult now instead of later. Yesterday's nurse also left a note on Wyatt's chart to do footprints when the art line comes out. Nurse Rachel rocks!!! I wish we could have her every day! She arranged for a bigger crib for him, made sure he has toys to look at for stimulation, and has poseys on his hands so he can’t try to pull the tube out again. Definite brownie points for her!!!
