More ups and downs

Mason continues to do well. He lost about 2 oz. last night and is starting to loose some of his puffiness. His vital signs have continued to do well so they weaned his hydrocortisone by 20 percent again. Last night he had some jerky movements so they moved his cranial ultrasound up to today so they could have a look. The only other concern is his platelets have dropped to 95. His dr. was going to start his feeds back today but wants to wait because of this. They will recheck platelets again in the morning.

His vent settings are minimal and he is doing really well. He is to the point where they could consider extubating but they want to continue to watch his platelet count closely. Please pray that Mason's platelet count remains steady or increases. Platelets are "eaten" when your body has an infection and we really hope that his antibiotics are working. Everything has to be watched so closely right now to continue his progress. But we are going to keep the faith that he can continue to pull through this. Thanks for your continued prayers and support.
