Rhys is Pissed Off

by Slack, on January 18th, 2004

So, today at 2am my son decided he’s had enough of the flippin tube down his throat. He yanked it out himself! Been breathing on his own since then. They’ve got him on CPAP now which is a constant flow of pressure through his nose to keep his lungs inflated. I don’t know that he likes it any better. He desatted down to the 50’s when I was there tonight. Was very scary. He still may be intubated again, but as before it’s not a step backwards if he is. All other things are about the same tonight. I’m not in top form tonight so will cut this short. My mental capacity feels very full and tapped… Time to relax… Errr, try to relax that is…. Ahh who am I kidding? No relaxing for the next 18 years!! hahaha
