Day 19: Happy Easter!

Happy Easter from Viv and all of her friends!

Vivienne continued to impress her doctors and nurses today. Her ventilator settings have been weaned from 45 to 30 (10-15 is the goal for extubation) and she tolerated a reduction in her morphine. She had a very peaceful day and allowed mom and dad to take a few Easter photos without protest. Everyone in the NICU thinks Viv is so laid back, and we would have to agree. She really is a trooper!

We're looking forward to this week. Hopefully we will be able to start feeds soon and lose some of her accessories.
