Goofball

Today was a great day! Owen got a good night of sleep last night which made a world of difference. Add to that a 2.5 hour nap today and he was in great spirits. We had no visitors and i think he needed a down day. My dad brought his WiiU up early this morning so he had video games which "made my day 50% better!" Daddy was here for a while today while I went home to work on the house (major stress relief) and spent time with Kam and Logi. I am back tonight and Owen is silly as ever. Selfie time...



We decided to not mess with his ECMO this weekend and let his body have to rest. We also have him up to 1500cals a day of salmon, avacados, kale, quinoa and other good stuff via gtube. We are doing everything we can to optimize his health. He is obviously in critical condition despite his amazing attitude. Tomorrow is another down day and we are hoping for a big successful wean off ECMO Monday.
