Where do I begin? Ok so, yesterday Jamie calls me and tells me that the entire time we thought Wyatt was on 80% oxygen he was really on 40% because of a calibration error with the high-flow cannula he was on. Needless to say I was happy and pissed all at the same time. I am ecstatic that he is doing so much better than we thought but anytime there is an error on the part of the hospital it scares the crap out of me. Anyway, after the doctors discovered the error they decided to try bottle feeding Wyatt one time a day. Wyatt didn't do great on his first attempt but that is to be expected. The other thing that happened is that Wyatt was moved to a low-flow cannula and that is basically like breathing room air. In fact, from here they just pull the cannula out and try him at room air for little increments of time. I can't express how elated Jamie and I are that Wyatt is progressing so quickly. I mean with this latest development we could be going home way sooner than we thought a week ago!!!!!
