LONG NIGHT

Well at about 12am I noticed Witt's oxygen was staying down a little and when I looked at him he was breathing harder. We tried stopping his feed to see if it was his stomach. We changed his trach in case it was blocked. Did a blood gas which came back fine and an xray which showed he has a small collapse and maybe a small pneumonia. I have no idea how he got it maybe some type of aspiration. Or he heard we were going to move and get the house ready tomorrow. HA! The blessing all this is if this would have happened pre-trach we would have been rushed to the PICU and been intubating him. He seems to be playing through it all. Till he gets over this pneumonia they are putting him back on the hospital vent because it is easier to manage and more affective. Please pray this will not be a huge set back and we he will get over this quickly.

I was driving down the road yesterday and Witt popped into mind, and just then when I turned on the car radio, they were playing "Mighty to Save"! Praying for you all.
