Update
Dear Son is recovering nicely. They removed all of the oxygen last night and he is breathing on his own. His chest x-ray continues to improve. The left lung is still partially collapsed. They continue to feed him via the g-tube and it appears that he will need to continue these feeds until it is safe for him to eat. Ped Neuro Doc says we will be here a few more days. There has been some discussion of transferring him to a rehab facility but I don't have any more information at this time. Thank you for your concern and for all of your prayers.

Both prayers and concern will continue. Thank you so much for keeping us up to date!
I'm so glad things are going as well as they are!
Please give your son a kiss on the head from me!
Great news!!
Continuing to hold you up in prayer.

How wonderful that things are continuing to improve! Hang in there, I (and the whole 1000 Minutes gang) am sending you hugs & prayers.
Glad to hear about the improvement. I think we all expected a much different outcome. Thank God we were wrong.
I'm so relieved to hear this from you.
Try and get some rest now that things aren't as bad as they were.
Dittoes all around. Glad things are going so well! :) Keep the faith, sistah!
Love,
