we're counting down to homecoming

Before Tyler can come home from the hospital there are a few criteria that must be bet to satisfy his doctors.

One is that he must be off all ventilator support for at least 72-hours.

Second is that he must have a smaller trach placed into his neck and be able to breathe easily for 48 hours.

And third, he must have enough stamina to remain in a sitting position for a short period of time.

We're working toward all those goals with the help of everyone here.

Craig and I are sharing the hours at his bedside along with sister Christi and gramma and grampa.

Christi is good at keeping him entertained with Sesame Street videos on the computer. Grampa is always for some story books.
