Going home!!!!! (maybe)

So.....yeah.......Dr. Brown was just here (Yay!) and he said the Micah is looking
REALLY good....He and the other doctors are thinking about sending him
home....possibly today....They are trying to track down a take home nebulizer....Micah
had a mucus plug stuck in between his nose and throat that was obstructing his
breathing...They are still chalking up the other times he stopped breathing to reflux, but
now they are treating his breathing troubles separately....which is good...Micah has a
cold which has hit him kind of hard, but he is looking SO MUCH better....He has been
able to tolerate his feeds and keep his SATs up on his own and he's also not getting
exhausted from just trying to breathe....which means he has met the requirements the
doctors set for him to go home...He has worked hard and had to put up with having his
nose mouth and throat vacuumed out every two hours like a champ...He is a fighter!!!
