Our sweet little Owen has had a rough stretch. On Monday he was finished with the steroids, but took a turn in the opposite direction than we had hoped. They had to up his settings on the ventilator and raise his oxygen levels significantly. He's had increased secretions and increased fluid. The weight gain we were so excited about, wasn't really a great thing. It has been fluctuating since Monday, but is still around 3lbs and 4oz. Yesterday and today, things have improved, but they're still not where they were or where they need to be for him to get off the ventilator. His next eye exam will be tomorrow or Friday. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
