We got to come home Friday afternoon, which was a great thing. Trach cultures came back positive for pseudomas sensitive to Cipro. So, Logan is on cipro for 10 days. It can be very harsh to the stomach. It can cause thrush or yeast infection so we have been giving Logan some yogurt with active cultures in it to fight these things off. Poor thing has had diarrhea for a week now. But I am happy to report that Logan is pretty much back to his normal. He still doesn't want to come off of the vent any, but is tolerating his PMV trials inline with the vent. Logan is talking so much right now. I have been able to get him to say "mama", "dada" and he has started saying "nana"! Such a smart little guy :)
Next Thursday we are going to UNC for Logan's ultrasound, appointment with Urology to schedule surgery, and his swallow study. It's going to be a busy day and I hope Logan does well with it all.
We are getting all kinds of new equipment for Logan. He's getting a vest for chest PT (which he hates), borrowing a kid cart with a vent tray until ours comes in, and Logan is getting a big boy bed soon! His bed will be able to recline him, and has rails on it. We are super excited :)
