Today might be a major milestone in Brendan’s journey. We have tried this road before and it didn’t work out. The ventilator is turned off tonight! Maybe it has seen its last usage.<\/p>\n

We visited Brendan’s pulmonologist today for his quarterly checkup. She sent us home with some equipment to run our own sleep study on him at home to verify that he is doing well without the vent. So far tonight, his numbers are all-star.<\/p>\n

There is still much that is up in the air. Brendan will need a formal sleep study done at the hospital where he will have his trach capped. His pulmonologist, cardiologist, and ENT surgeon have to work together to determine whether Brendan will need to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. A bronchoscopy might be in the near future.<\/p>\n

We have to take it all one day at a time and use the data we gather to help us determine the next step. In the end, we are hoping that this will lead to trach removal before the summer is gone.<\/p>\n

Go, Brendan, Go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
