I got back to the office today. Brett has been a great support (as has everyone that we know) and provider of his usual arrogant "up yours" type of humour, but the bussines isn't gonna carry on flying with one wing.
I checked in on Stevie early this morning. Kumari is back in charge. He's eating, but hadn't passed any stool. They assisted him. He's been taken off the Nitrogen. We're really happy about this.
Feeding is up to 15 ml. Mom's milk is helping. I'm positive. Ouma has also arrived. She landed last night so now Bernice has another pillar of support. This is also a huge help for me.
Pillay has also taken Stevie off the morphine and dormicum. He'll start waking soon, so we hope he doesn't try and fight the oscillator. No doubt he's gonna want to pull it out, stand up and walk out of there. This is little Preston. He's a solutions kind of guy.
With a little luck and continued stability, they'll take Stevie off the oscillator and put him onto the ventilator tomorrow. With all the sleeping drugs out of the equasion he's starting to breeth. He forgets from time to time, but the ventilator will help with this.
Just had granny's stew for supper. Just the medicine that mom and dad needed.
The support this far has been nothing short of incredible. There's not really a way to thank everyone adequately. Really it all means so much to us! Keep up the praying. Mom and I will be a little more comfortable when they go back from oscillator to ventilator, but until he's at home we're not through the kak.
