PICU Day 23 and 24

Today Ben's home vent came.
I've spent some of the day training.
They are still giving him trach trials.
They want to see how he'll do off the vent.
(for short periods of time)
My plan at home is to take him places without it.
And when we're home, I'll put him back on.
Life will be less complicated that way.
And hopefully soon he'll be off it all together.

On a happier note,
Kaleb is visiting this weekend.
Brothers NEED to be together.

Please don't tell Ben "I'd rather be" with Kaleb. It's been too long since I"ve seen him ;-)
