Another Great Day!!!

Another great day here in the Twin Cities.... We have been truly blessed this week and are excited how God is moving in our situation. Eli is continuing to do well and is making great strides. He officially has no lines, as his central line was removed today. He is now on 3 liters of oxygen and is managing it well. He is moving to the floor, off the PICU this afternoon. This is another big step forward and we continue to pray that things get even better. He has begun work with the Speech Therapist and is taking to his pacifier very well. He is managing his secretions very well and is coughing and keeping his lungs clear. All in all, things are going very well. Mom and Dad are a little nervous about him moving to the floor, but we know he is in God's hands. It is in His hands how much longer we remain here. We are hoping we will be gone by the end of the month, but that is just our estimation. Nothing has been set in stone.

God Bless...

Love to hear you are on the floor and out of PICU. It is amazing how happy you get over the little things, like using a pacifier, after the process you have seen Eli go through. We are happy for all of you guys!
Take care...
