Mighty Micah Is Making Improvements!

Micah's right lung is looking better. Hopefully today he'll get off the pressure support for his breathing and get the heart pressure sensor line out. That would be wonderful! Micah is off the pressure support!!!! He's back to breathing on regular oxygen. His lungs are looking a lot better too. I'm still hopeful that this is something Micah can deal with on his own and he won't need another surgery. But we will cross that bridge if it come. Later on today his heart pressure sensor should be coming out. He's making some progress. The heart pressure sensor is out. That leaves just 2 IVs left in him. He's still doing well with his breathing so that's a plus. I got to hold him for a while this afternoon and he was smiling and talking to me too. They are weaning him more and more off his pain medicine and he's doing great. Amazing, with everything he's been through in 2 weeks.

Again thanks for praying for Micah!
