Update - Saturday, Day 6 of Hospitalization

Man....here we are on Day 6 of Quinten's hospital stay for severe respiratory distress, and bronchiolitis. He is a little fighter and overall in very good spirits. All of the nurses are IN LOVE with him (of course), and Kevin stayed there last night and reported that nursing students were bringing other students into Quinten's room just to meet him and to see him because they think he's sooo cute! They aren't telling us anything we don't already know though.

The weening off oxygen is going much slower that we had anticipated. He's now on 1/16 - and has to be able to sleep while on that without dropping below 90 percent oxygen. He has difficulty maintaining while he sleeps, but when awake he's 95-98! He has to get to 1/32, and then on room air. Once on room air, he'll need to sleep and be monitored for 24 hours. So you can see we are still days away from coming home.

We appreciate all of your prayers! Please keep prayer for our darling little angel. We want him home as soon as possible, but we want to make sure he's healthy enough too. Here are some photos of our week:
