Lydia will stay in the PICU for at least a couple more days until she is off the vent. She is only on the vent to add some oxygen and pressure to her breathing. CPAP. It helps her keep her saturation levels up and keep her lungs open all the way when breathing.
Lydia is being treated with antibiotics, bag suctioning, cough assist and CPAP. She's still getting Toradol, Oxycodone and Morphine. The kiddo should be on cloud 9, but bless her heart she just feels crummy and is sleeping most of the time, or at least resting with her eyes shut.
she may feel crummy but she looks beautiful! You've got this Lydia!! She just wants a little more one on one attention in the PICU then she will move on up to the not so thrilling floor <3
