Day 13 @ Children’s Hospital in DC

Gavin continues to show good progress post extubation. He is receiving very little assistance of oxygen and is doing a majority of the breathing on his own. His o2 stats look great, but his heart rate can go really high at times. He still continues to be very agitated due to weaning off from the sedation meds. To avoid bad withdrawal spells, he is on methadone and ativan as needed. Gavin will still remain in PICU until it is evident that his o2 stats are great consistently. We really don’t know when we will be home, but we hope it is very soon. Please continue to pray for Gavin. Gavin is a living testimony that God will listen to prayers and grant his will. Thank you-thank you so much for being here in spirit and for always praying for our dear sweet boy Gavin. You are keeping the hope alive!!
