Back on the cannula


Jackson has had a rough week since Sunday. He's been having high blood pressure and constant dessating. When I was holding him during his feedings he's grunting and groaning and having lots of refluxing. Poor little guy, he's been so restless and acting very uncomfortable. The doctors are trying to figure out what is going on. He had a chest x-ray done, some blood work and a urine test. So far clinically he's fine. I was told by one of the doctors that he may not being feeling so well because of the vaccinations he received on Sunday. His oxygen levels where dropping to low numbers and his heart rate was dropping, so he was put back on the cannula this morning.

I was also told today by one of the doctors that Jackson still had a long ways to go before he goes home and that he wouldn't be coming home for Christmas.
