I don't need no Stinkin' Oxygen!

Madi is now almost 5 1/2 months and her laringual tissues should be hardened up by now. Dr. Pfeffer sent out the Oxymeter (sp?) again for us to measure her oxygen levels during her sleep. We hooked her up to it on Saturday night as well as Sunday night. I kept anticipating the alarm to go off every couple of minutes as it had months ago when we first tested her. Much to our amazement, it didn't go off even once in those two nights! What a relief! It is looking like everything has worked out as it should and she is going to be able to send back her oxygen tank for once and for all! I am sure no one is happier about it than Madi however. Understandibly, She gets so upset everytime we have to put the tube in her nose. It breaks our heart every night to see her get so upset! We have our evaluation with Dr. Pfeffer next monday to go over the test results and get the final word on if we are clear to do away with the oxygen. We all are very optimistic that this appointment will go VERY well! We'll let you know how it goes!

In the mean time, get a load of those adorable toes!!!
