Day 97 (38/2)

Well, we’ll, well…

Asher’s feeding tube has been removed…

He’s exclusively bottle fed…

All IV’s have been removed…

He’s currently down on respiratory support to .2L/min @ 100% O2 and loving it (this O2 percentage at the .2L/min rate is actually good for his eyes right now)…

We’re counting down to Thursday 🙏🏻

Speaking of Thursday, we’re hosting a virtual NICU graduation shindig this Thursday evening (10/14) at 6pm…

Here are the details:

SURPRISE

Asher will be graduating the NICU and finally coming home! The discharge date is tentatively set for Thursday morning. We know you are all dying to see Asher, but for now we would like to have a virtual welcome home/graduation party with everyone. If you would like to send him a graduation gift prior, we linked the registry and will open them with him during the zoom party. We are so thankful that you all have followed him along this journey and we can’t wait to bring him home.

We are blessed to be so close to the other side of this first part of Asher’s life…

Today, Dr Lipsky told us about a company called Carousel Pediatrics that offers 24/7 nursing and in home pediatric visits for everything Asher would need so he won’t have to leave the house…

It’s something he qualifies for too!

Stay tuned…
