Praise! The doctors were able to pull Austin's breathing tube yesterday afternoon. It was very tense yesterday as he is still struggling to breathe but hopefully they will not have to put the tube back in. Andy and I stayed with him last night at the hospital and took turns staying up with him because he was really agitated and not wanting to sleep which was making it even harder on him to breathe. The doctors ordered a medicine called Ativan to help him relax and sleep and it helped him to settle down. I really want to nurse him but right now he is on too much oxygen and breathing too fast. It is so hard to not be able to comfort your child when you see him in distress. Please pray that his oxygen needs will decrease and that he will rest today. I am charging the camera battery and will post new pictures (sans tube) as soon as I can.

I struggled so much with that, and basically would watch her and just will for her O2 sats to go up...hang in there. We are praying for yall and I have passed yall on to some amazing prayer warriors that prayed so faithfully for Lily.
