I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know we did. We ate too much, laughed a lot and shopped a little....

Isaac's nurse came by again today. He now weighs 7 lbs & 8 ounces. He has also been saturating really well. So David and I discussed turning his oxygen more. This turned it down to only 1/64 of a liter. So as I was talking to the nurse today I asked what she thought of taking him off to see how he does... Well we did. He has been saturating as if he still had the oxygen. She said to watch when he eats too and check to see if he saturated well while eating. Again, he saturated just as if he is still on oxygen! One time he started to decrease and decrease in saturation while just laying there. His color was still really good. Then I realized the monitor was off of him...he also went to his first black friday shopping experience. He did very well! Slept through most of it. But please know we only went for an hour and it was 1 in the afternoon.

Please still pray for our sleep. He is getting up a lot at night and can keep me awake for a three hour period sometimes in one night. Also, we are believing for his cough to disappear as well. It is due to extra drainage from the nasal canula which is from the oxygen. Drainage gets caught in his throat and makes him have a very loud and icky cough. Sometimes it bothers him more than others. He has had it for a while. Even when he was in the hospital.

Have a great night!
