Drayke is not handling the transport to Vanderbilt very well. He was transferred Wednesday and has been going thru many spells of de-saturating his oxygen levels. It keeps going anywhere from 17 to the high 90s so we dont know if there has been any brain damage yet. Dr W did say if he consistantly stays in the 40s then there will be damage. Thank the gods for small miracles of not staying low for too long.
This morning when I called the nurse told me he had a very rough night and is now on a morphine drip along with clear fluids. His feedings have been suspended due to the bagging they need to do when his sats get so far down. They do not want to risk him aspirating formula into his lungs. He is also still getting Versed and Ativan to help keep him sedated and calm to not overwork his very enlarged heart as well as other assorted meds for his pulmonary hypertension.
I am still amazed that he is now 9 pounds 14 ounces as of last night.
Please pray for my little dragon. I dont know how much longer he is going to be with us.
