Another day of xrays, blood tests, steroids, antibiotics, breathing treatments, and other assorted medication. Basically he's pushing 3 liters (I believe that's the standard measure) of air and is maintaining a 91% percent average. Tragedy is I don't know what the hell that means short of his blood has less oxygen in it than it should have. He's at the minimum going to be spending another night and I wouldn't be surprised if he's spending Christmas night too.
He's incredibly bummed and I'm doing all I can to keep his spirits up, but I'm failing miserably. There's only so much happy conversation that a guy can come up with that can compete with spending Christmas in the hospital. |

Christmas in a hospital sucks for kids. Spent a couple of Christmas's in Childrens Mercy taking care of kids. Each parent handles it differently. There is no right way other than just being by their side, reassuring them they are not going through this alone and are loved.

Common sense will tell you this. Your pumping 100%+ into the body and getting readings of 88-91%. The solution is not pump more oxygen into the body. The solution is to figure why the O2 is not binding to the hemoglobin. I know it sucks. I have spent Christmas day with children in the hospital and with their families. You just endure and move on. The good news is that they should know fairly quickly why the O2 is not binding to the hemoglobin soon. And in my experience 99.9% of those causes are fixable and fixable quickly. And that was 12 years ago. they surely have made advances. So I know its easy to let you mind wonder, is it cancer, is it some disease etc. I may have been out of the field for 12 years but one thing will always be true.......... your son needs his Dad and he will forever remember you being there for him. It's a positive that comes out of the pain. Families become closer.
