Ryan has worked so hard today! After his 2 hour afternoon nap he was able to go on FLO-BI and the trach mask (the only support he was getting was oxygen) for 35-40 minutes total...20 minutes of it was on trach mask. He then continued breathing on the pressure support setting (just a little boost from the vent) for another hour and a half. He is struggling a little with anxiety, so please pray that he is able to overcome that. It is very normal for people to be anxious as they are weaning from the vent.
- Please continue to pray that Ryan is able to get the rest that he needs at night so that he is able to wean more and more each day.
- Pray for his anxiety levels to go down.
- Pray for his body to continue gaining strength.
- Pray that Ryan would realize how much he is accomplishing each day and not get discouraged (he wants to be doing more and he is already doing SO much!).
