More good news!

Drew's Xrays all came back clear, and he is doing great on "room air" (no breathing tube). His oxygen levels are all at 95 and better! He was also pulled completely off sedation meds, and is alert and hanging out on tylenol! Although I did have to let the nurses know that Justin has severe tylenol-sensitive asthma, just in case. Did I mention he has a nurse at his bedside 24/7? How awesome is that?

Also, his geneticist called, and his Echocardiogram (an ultrasound of his heart) came back normal, as did his hearing. We are still waiting on blood tests (6-8 weeks) and Opthamology (eye doctor) though, to rule out genetics as the cause of Drew's PRS. It will be a relief to find out it was just a "fluke" (if you will), so he hopefully won't also have to deal with hearing/vision loss later in life.
