Noah's Recovery - Update # 5

It's day 6 after surgery but update number 5. Yesterday was just an exhaustingly busy day that flew by and I didn't have time to write a long update.

Noah still has pneumonia. His oxygen levels do seem to be doing better with the new breathing tube though. However they are going to have a respiratory therapist come in now and do some chest exercise therapies on him three times a day to try and get him breathing deeper.

His fever is up to 102.5. They took more blood this morning to do cultures to see if he has an infection. Please pray that it is NOT an infection. This would be very bad and could even require them having to operate again.

I'm not feeling well. As soon as my Dad gets here J is going to take me to the doctor. I'll update more when I can.

  2. Prayers continue for you, Noah, your family and the hospital staff, Coley. I hope you and Noah are both feeling better soon and that his recovery goes more smoothly from here on out.
