Day 24, 2-10-7

Great day and night! Removing the vent was very smooth and he did a lot better than they expected. Parker definitely is a fighter and always puts in 110% to get the job done! I think they were surprised how well he did. This morning he will be getting a breakfast tray with clear liquids and maybe jello. He will probably just be happy to get to eat.

Parker will probably be in PICU for about 3 more days before he is moved to a regular room. The PICU unit is the slowest it has been since we arrived 3 weeks ago, they only had 4 patients last night but the pediatric floor is full of children.

You all are awesome, thanks for everything! Love, Kay

Here is a prayer someone left on the comment page.
THANK YOU!
Today, Lord, on this beautiful day,
we hold out Parker's life to you,
an empty vessel for you to fill and feed.
We thank you for giving him the
gift of this new morning. In your mercy,
may Parker continue to grow in your
mighty strength, strong once again to
dream dreams, reflect your love,
do your work, and taste your peace
and healing. Lord, of this day,
we worship and thank you. AMEN
