This will be a brief update since both of us are pretty tired!
After a very difficult & rough weekend, Nate had a pretty good day today. His white blood cell count is down to 14 after skyrocketing to 23.3 yesterday and his blood gases are better. This morning about 6:30AM the nurses and the RT (Respiratory Therapist) suction a major, thick, bloody plug from his nose. It was very similar to the one that we suctioned from the back of his throat on Sunday and having it out of there really helped him. His breathing was better, the airflow in his lungs was better and he was in better spirits. All of the thoughts, prayers, breathing treatments, antibiotics and healing oils are beginning to work!
Nate still has a tough battle ahead of him but he is one of the strongest individuals that I have ever been around. As Jen said in a previous post, it is amazing that a 3 year old is teaching all of us so much about Life!
We’ll update again tomorrow and thanks for checking up on the little guy…
