Our Trip to see Jade yesterday!

She is finally out of the ICU and onto a regular floor. She had one lung tube taken out but still has the one in. She had been running a fever off and on so they are watching her closely for infections anywhere. Since having the respirator taken out she has still had to be on oxygen - but that is still an improvment! She is finally starting to look a little more like herself.


Here she is when we first got there. Sleeping like a log:

This is what is being drained from her lung. You can see the stuff on the left is much darker and thicker. This is what was coming out at the begining. As you can see the stuff that is coming out now is looking alot lighter and better. I can't believe this much has come from her one tiny lung.

She still isn't feeling very good but agreed to eat a little bit of a happy meal. She ate better then we expected and were thrilled because if she hadn't eaten they were going to start feedings again that night.

Her and Brayden really wanted to play together so her doctor agreed to a 10 minute wagon ride! She was not very happy about being moved into the wagon cause it hurt her (see her crossed arms):

Daddy got to pull Brayden in his OWN wagon behind her:

Since she is still on oxygen and fluids we had to tag all that along with us:

We decided to take Brayden for a walk around the hospital to get some of his energy out before we loaded into the car for the trip home. Here are him and daddy looking out the window:

Here is Brayden HANGING from the window:
