This is better?


Well the answer is yes and no. What you see there in the picture is Thomas breathing through a mask over his nose. Right now though, this is proving to be a little too much for him. He's taking alot of breaths and basically wearing himself out, burning up calories that he doesn't need to burn up. So, its just a little too soon for him, it appears. More than likely, they will put him back on a ventilator and let him mature a little bit more. Then we'll give it another go. Nothing to be discouraged about. My take on it is that Thomas likes having things taken care of if he can. So since he's got to lay there and can't work out or ride bikes or wrestle a bear or anything cool like that, he might as well let the machine breathe for him right now.

As for the move, Room D is not near as spacious as E was and it seems that its not much less noisy. There may be a possibility of another move. Its good thing the isolet is on wheels.
That's all for now.

  1. Breathing a little fast.....hummm? Are you sure he isn't catching a peek at that cute young thing in the isolet next to him??? Sounds like you have a young 'player' on your hands!!

    Thomas is such a cutie....I love to 'check in' on him as often as possible. Nana and Papa will see such a change when they visit later this week!

    Hugs and kisses all around for Valentine's Day.
    Love, Louise and Rick
