Grandmother Nancy holding Will for the 1st time!!
Our Sweet Little Man
Will's Christmas Tree
Will got lots of gifts from Santa! He even got a $50 Target gift card from Faith Hill & Tim McGraw!!
Will is doing much, much better today. He is like his old self! He hasn't had anymore "spells" where his sats drop. In fact, doctors have been able to wean him on his ventilator rate to 36 and his oxygen to 45%.
Will is going to go home on a ventilator. Right now, doctors are trying to wean him down to a rate somewhere between 24-30. This should take about a week.
It will be about a month before he will go home. Josh & I have to finish our trach training and learn how to use the ventilator.
Hopefully we'll enjoy a few weeks at home before going back to Michigan for heart surgery #2. We're not sure exactly when that will be... sometime between February and April.

Just look at all the loot that Santa brought! And how COOL that Faith Hill and Tim McGraw gave every child at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital a Target gift card. I just might start listening to country music!
All the Perdues say, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
