Two in a Row

Another great day. Matt had 4 breathing trials that totaled 5 hours, 10 min. We are so proud of you Matt. Keep praying that God will continue to strengthen Matt beyond our expectations. Luke 1:37 "For nothing is impossible with God". He had his last chest tube out today as well. Sat up in his chair for 2 hours 20 min with the new neck brace. He was having some difficulty again so they stuffed some towels in and felt much better. Last night he was able to have 2 Popsicles. Great stuff. He did find them a bit sweet since he has had nothing but water for 6 weeks. He did throw up again this am so the may hold off on the Popsicles at night but continue to give them to him in the daytime. Very happy with this. He even got a tic tac, which was also new. They decided not to put the PICC line in and opted for changing the IV site to the right hand, which is less swollen. He is also beginning to feel the urge to push out his... well...poo poo. No delicate term for it I guess. But great news none the less. He did have a slight fever again at 38.3. Great prayers on keeping it stable. Deuteronomy 32:3 "I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God".
