What a show off!

Jensen has proven to be quite the little show off! Just after Dr. Fuller finished closing his chest, he opened his eyes and looked around (with plenty of meds on board!). His numbers were beautiful all day long. When we went home tonight the ventilator was down to 25 and his oxygen sats were 86-87! He is still negative (peeing fluid off) and moving around a lot. He is now able to start chest PT, which will help the small sore on his back. Jensen LOVES laying on his side, he looks so comfy! He has done incredibly well today!


Tomorrow Jensen will have an MRI, so he will be under anesthesia...again. I hate that he has to be under so much, but I know its the only way. He is definitely doing well trying to breathe on his own, so hopefully once he wakes up from sedation, he can be extubated. We love this little boy so much! It only gets better from here =)

  2. Hoping to see Jensen's precious little face minus the vent tomorrow! He is one of the strongest little guys I've 'met' during Zoe's journey. Hang in there little man and give mom and dad some more smiles!
