C-PAP smiles

While it's not the most attractive apparatus you could wear on your face, it's definitely the most welcome milestone yet! We couldn't be happier to have graduated from the vent-- on to bigger and better lung capacity! And even though this next month will probably be spent on the C-PAP before graduating to a nasal cannula (just oxygen prongs), we rejoice in how far he's come and how well he's doing! It is evident that prayer is powerful-- and that God is good-- this morning he was down to 21% oxygen! Looking forward to seeing how much chubbier his cheeks can get now that he's able to rest and grow...

So wonderful to see! It does look like he's smiling in the 2nd picture. :-) He keeps looking better and better. Thank you God!
