Today is February 20th. Last night by the time I left the hospital, Lynn's ammonia levels were down to 74 and it is expected that they will continue to decrease. During a neuro exam, Lynn did demonstrate flexion in his right arm, a good sign. Up until then, the only response he gave during a pain stimulation was extension. Flexion is the next level of response. He only demonstrated it twice, but we are excited about every small step. This morning, I called his nurse to see what kind of night he had and she told me that they had a bit of a scare. She was suctioning out his ET tube and she got a mucous plug. Part of it broke off and plugged the tube. They had to disconnect from the vent and bag him while they tried to dislodge the plug. She said that they all kinds of doctors in there ready to do whatever was needed. Of course his ICP went way up, but that eventually came down. She said she thought they were going to have to reintubate him but they were able to dislodge the plug and he was fine. This morning, we are inducing Sterling so I am not with Lynn. His family is there and will be updating me through the day. We know that many of you are concerned and supporting Sterling at this time, but we are asking that no visitors come. You are welcome to view her blog about the pregnancy and birth at www.benandsterlingsbaby.blogspot.com We appreciate your support and will keep you posted about Lynn as progress is made.
