Lucas had both eyes open today. He also has his tongue sticking out now that he's on the other ventilator. Only updates today are that his blood sugars were high so they gave him some insulin this morning. He also had another heart echo. The PDA is still open- its small but the blood is flowing the way the doctors want it to so they're not worried about it. They will continue with medicine to get the ductus closed. I got to help with cares again today - swabbing his mouth is also much easier with this ventilator as there is more room to get into his tiny mouth to rub his gums. Baby boy does not like to have his diaper changes, but he quite enjoys being laid on his tummy.
Keep getting stronger little man!
go lucas go
