One Step At A Time

Any progress is good. Today Caleb's heart rate has decreased, which is good. It had been averaging around 185-186 beats per minute; now it is in the high 170's. The goal is around 150 beats per minute. This was accomplished by decreasing very slightly the amount of epinephrin. His blood pressure has been doing well.

We had a couple scary moments today when his oxygen level dropped. Mostly, it was due to his oxygen tube being too low and therefore the air was mostly getting into one lung.

All of the progress made will come very slowly, little by little, step by step. That's kind of like spiritual growth, isn't it?
