Day 47 of Life

Day Forty-Seven of Life: That's how rounds started today.  It's also how rounds started over three years ago, the last day of rounds for Adeline & Charlotte.  I keep telling myself we can get through at least 47 days, we've done it once already!

I'm happy to report that Lincoln is doing very well on day 47.  He hit three pounds today - in fact, three pounds, one ounce!  Also the settings on his ventilator were lowered today.  His respiratory rate went from 50 to 40, and his PIP from 17 to 16.  Essentially this means that they are expecting Link to do more of his own breathing.  I think he'll do well.  I hope he'll do well!  Blood test tonight at 8:00 to check and see how it's going.  Positive thoughts.
