Day 134 - Grandma's First Visit!
Thursday, May 13th, 2021 Grandma who will be referred to as Juju visited the NICU and met her first grand baby for the first time! It was very emotional. All of the RNs and RTs were so sweet with him and were stopping by to meet Juju. She was able to watch Mom do the trach tie change and hold a couple of times. He listened to her stories and made great eye contact. Changes: Increased Tidal Volume to 50 because he has grown. Starting Melatonin at night to help of his sleep cycle. James had an excellent night. Our night nurse was on top of it! He only really had two events at 8:00pm and 3:00am. We really think between the increase in tidal volume, the Melatonin, being connected to the farrell bag, and the gas drops being consistently given something has helped the BPD episodes! Sometimes it's hard when there are so many variables to take one away! P.S. You can email James your love and support as often as you’d like. Mom and Dad read these emails to James as they come in. We all love...
