ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Gabe failed his sleep study again Saturday night. He was so fussy and couldn't get comfortable. He barely slept. They detected that he had 10-15 apnic episodes per hour. Even though this is improved from last month (before the GTube and heart surgery, he was having 27 apnic episodes per hour), it's still considered moderate to severe apnea. Cardiology spoke with Pulmonary today explaining how great clinically he was looking and that he's been off oxygen since Thursday night and doing well. Pulmonary said they were going to review his sleep study again slide by slide and see what trends are going on and if he got enough hours of sleep to make the study accurate. They're going to come back this afternoon or tomorrow morning to discuss if they need to repeat the study or if they have an intervention they recommend.

Sorry it came back poorly, but he is making great strides. He's getting so strong, not to mention huge... I'm sure he'll keep gaining strength and kicking apnea's butt from here on out.

Well on the good side at least it has gotten better. Maybe in the future it will be less and less spells. Glad to hear that the heart is good and he's off oxygen. Yah. Hope you are home soon.
