Tyler can really sleep through almost anything.
This afternoon the pulmonary doctor arrived with good news. Tyler's large sized trach is being replaced with a smaller trach. This is the next step toward going home.
Tyler must get get used to breathing with an adult sized trach. He's had a pediatric size for years now.
As the doctor was talking to us about Tyler and the past five weeks of hospitalization -- he said "Your son has been the most challenging asthmatic I've ever experienced. He has pushed me to my professional limit."
I'm not exactly sure if this is good news or bad news.
Nonetheless -- I'm just very happy that Tyler has done as well as he has given the circumstances.
Tyler got his speaking valve put back on today and he has really enjoyed talking to everyone. "Hi mom" were the first words out of his mouth. Closely followed by "ga-ga."
So as the doctor is giving us the good news about a possible discharge date -- Tyler seemed immune to everything. As long as he has grandpa in the room with him - that's all he needs.
Well, grandpa and a good nap.
