Will has had a rough day.
The doctors didn't like the positioning of his breathing tube this morning, so they changed it's position and retaped it. Unfortunately, it required them to sedate Will heavily, thus turning his ventilator setting up to 27. They also had to turn up his oxygen as well.
He also had an episode this morning when the o2 levels in his blood dropped down to the upper 30's (it should be 70's-80's).
Despite all of that, he seems to be resting more comfortably now, and his stats seem to be ok. Hopefully it will stay that way so they can begin weaning him off the vent again.

Hello from Memphis,
We think about y'all so often. It seems as if you have lived an entire life since the last time we saw you. I am so impressed with the support you are giving each other and the support you are receiving from your extended family. It is all so amazing. We join with your other family members in hoping that you will be "home for Christmas!" Love, Rusty, Debbie & Amanda
