Bella back on vent 12-29-2011 8pm

This is a typical thing but she did tolerate almost 12 hrs of the SiPaP machine (just a large humidified nasal cannula with some special settings). NNP attempted to place a larger ET tube to assist with better gas exchange at the alveoli level. So she needs some more time to help those lungs grow! Tonite she is cruising at 88-90% O2 sat with 35% FiO2 on the ventilator(almost the lowest it can get). Minor set back they say. We r expecting at least 4 wks total on the vent. So here's the picture back on the ventilator tonight. Thank you for your continued prayers & faith. They really mean so much to us! She will heal. She will grow.
