I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33
Thank you so much for your continued prayers. Luke looks much better today. He has more color and continues to tolerate his feeds. Yesterday, Luke pulled out his breathing tube and the team had to put it back in as he wasn't getting enough oxygen on his own. He has some swelling in his airway due to the vent and that makes it hard to breath. They will treat him with steroids today, tomorrow and Tuesday -- the steroids should help with the inflamation. The doctors plan to take the breathing tube out tomorrow.
Papa Tantillo and Mumsy are here today and Jake is enjoying the one on one time! Jake is doing well and really likes his bottles -- I hear he might be a night owl.
Please continue to pray for strength and endurance for Emily and Jason, knowledge for Luke's wonderful care team, that the steroids will help Luke and that he will be able to breath without the vent.
