Busy day today

Today has been busy for our man. This morning he had to be extubated and re-intubated because mucus was building up on the inside of the tube and it was making it hard for him to breathe. They did x-rays on his abdomen and nothing has changed yet. They also gave him a diuretic because it sounded like there was some fluid around his lungs and they stared the dopamine again to help his kidney function. He seems to be handling it pretty well, just napping for now. They wont be doing any x-rays again until saturday.

Hi Jeremy and Rocky - today is the first time I have had internet access to read Bryton's website activities. I am in northern Michigan and internet service as well as cell phone service is intermittant - so went to a cafe to use a public internet to catch up on Bryton.
Sounds like he is growing and doing as well as is expected by the Doctors. Thank you for being detailed at to how Bryton is doing and providing THOSE PICTURES OF YOUR LITTLE ANGEL. I may not have availability to check the website til middle of next week - but know that I am always thinking of each of you and lifting you all up in prayer to the Lord. What an amazing adventure you and Rocky are on. Take each day and keep on keeping on!!! Encourage each other daily - get your proper rest and keep on eating your veggies - I am in your corner as your PERSONAL CHEERLEADER !!! Love to both of you - Aunt Connie
