Today has been a good day. Last night they switched sedatives which brought about a much more peaceful rest for Rex. When he would awaken a little it was with less anxiety than the day before. The doctors have started to wean him from the sedatives and the ventilator and are planning to extubate him tomorrow. They also feel that they now have control of the infection. We still have a long road ahead of us as they continue to treat the infection, Rex heals from surgery, and they work to keep him from getting another infection due to his suppressed immune system.
Rex's family visited again today and are hoping to be able to see Rex awake tomorrow. My mom headed back to the Phoenix area to get the kiddos while Mike and Rex Jr. arrived earlier this evening and the three of us are relaxing in Rex's room.
Thank you all for your continued prayers. Our entire family is feeling the comfort and grace that comes only from God.
Good night!
