Day 28

Stable progress

Nothing much to report today – Robin remains stable on all the various measures: feeds, air, even weight.

He’s still experiencing a few desaturations & the occasional transient bradycardia, but a little increased O2 treatment helps with fast recovery.

Unfortunately Nicki’s premonition of a cold sore came true, so she was unable to visit today.

Instead, Peter got a chance for a kangaroo cuddle for an hour in the early evening. He was quiet – essentially zonked out – the whole time, which seems like a good thing.
