Another step back

Since the last blog post Jadon has had another setback.  He aspirated during a feeding and this caused him to struggle more with his breathing.   Eventually his blood pressure started to drop and his fever climbed again.   He started going septic - indicating some sort of infection.   They changed up his antibiotics again.   Later last night they decided to put Jadon back on the ventilator.  So they sedated him more once again and retubed him.  He has been resting better since then.   Now it's waiting for the fever to go down so that he can go get his diaphragm plication done.  They had to add back in an art-line ... they just removed his other one earlier in the day!
