Journal entry by Anya Postma —
Last night I got to hold Stetson for the first time after 36 days! What a crazy wonderful feeling 💙
Thursday he came off of the Jett ventilator around 10 am as did Bakker. After checking his lungs with an xray, they looked way better on the conventional ventilator, Bakkers looked about the same and required more breathing assistance. So for 2 hours I got to cuddle Stetson, while he slept and drooled all over me haha. Bakker was doing alright but overnight he became more drifty and his lungs looked worse so they decided to put him on the Jett again and give it a few days.
But really overall they have had a very very boring week. A typical day is alittle bloodwork, an xray, diaper changes and a whole lot of nap time. Besides the whole Vent thing and noticing that both boys have a ton of hair, all of us have been very content.
Once again thank you for your prayers!
