Jax had a good two nights with the increased PEEP. He still wakes up at night, not sure why, but he's not coughing on the vent. The problem is still when he comes off the vent, the coughing comes back with a vengeance!
Last night the yucky, pale color came back, and its still here today.
But I'm coming to realize that this just may be Jax. He will never be healthy. His body works extremely hard just to keep him alive. Its just been through the wringer too many times.
I'll talk to my ped today on the phone, but we are not going in.
No today, we are going swimming!
Pictures to follow!
Go have fun. Live life,filled with laughter and joy. That is what it is all about.

Enjoy your day swimming!
