Today was a very rough day for both Charlton and Savannah.

Charlton is not doing as well on the Oscillator as the doctors had hoped. In addition, they did an
X-ray on is lungs which showed that his lungs have partially collapsed. The doctors were hoping to take him off the Oscillator and move him to another type of vantillator but they do not feel he is stable enough at this point. They also had to change his arterial line again today because he continues to have problems with the artieries having spasms.

Savannah: They were considering taking her off the ventillator, however, over the last few days she has not been stable with her oxygen saturations and she periodically stops breathing all together.

We are hoping/praying that they will do better tomorrow.
