Bragging Rights....This goes down as Hunter's fifth time of self extubating. haha. They were supposed to extubate him at noon. Hunter heard this information. The nurse, Hunter, and me were sitting in the room at 12:15 waiting for the doctor's final okay ... well, what came next...Hunter turned his head and pulled the vent out. He only gave them 15 minutes and he took actions into his own hands. So far, things are going good. They started him out at 1 liter and have been able to wean him down to 1/2 liter. Next step ... 1/4 liter, this is where he was at before. I am so excited. He looks so good. He is bright eyed and is being my little bubba again! Yay!!! Keep praying. It usually takes a good 24 hours on nasal cannula to call him safe. But, he is stating nicely right now. I'm all smiles right now, as you can imagine.
