Here is the latest on Tyler's condition:
He has remained out of the Isolette since Friday morning at 8:00 a.m., meaning we are on day 5 of maintaining his temperature. The nurses actually took the Isolette out of the room yesterday so they are pretty confident that he is going to keep his temperature up within normal limits for the rest of his hospital stay. He is now sleeping in a gown with one loosely wrapped blanket and his temperature has been consistent in the 98.0-99.0 range. Unfortunately, his little veins are having a hard time keeping the IVs in. He is on IV site number 4 now. It's heart-breaking to know that they are poking him so much and that he is so uncomfortable. He is still scheduled to receive his last dosage of IV antibiotics on Friday at 6:00 p.m. Mike and I are hoping to be able to take him home Friday night rather than Saturday. Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we find the strength to make it through these LONG last couple of days and the courage to take him home with confidence!
