Day Three - January 28th

Today my mom came to see me for the first time since I came to Children's. She is still in the hospital but they gave her a day pass to come see me. I pulled my vent tube out last night because I was mad. My nurses left the vent out and put me on a CPAP hoping it would be enough. It wasn't and I had a slight setback. My doctor had to put the vent back in and drain an air pocket out of my right lung with a chest tube. I am starting back at around 33% on the ventilator and will have to work hard to regain what I've lost. This picture is my mom holding my hand for the first time. My dad and grandparents (Teresa and Ford) also were there to see me. I feel really loved.
