Jonah is doing great today. He is down to 2 liters of flow on his oxygen needs at about 40%. They are continuously weaning on his meds until tomorrow. He will have a couple of tests tomorrow: an echocardiogram, and then he will have an upper GI study to see if he is refluxing and how bad. We are very nervous that when they put the fluid i...
