Luke is feeling much better

We were discharged from the hospital late Friday afternoon and were so glad that it was not a long stay. It was nice to know exactly what he needed and that sped things up and kept him from having to stay so long like he did in October.

We will continue to do updraft breathing treatments at home and have some other stronger medicine at home now for when he gets sick next time. It's too early for the doctors to call it asthma, but his "reactive airway disease" and "chronic lung disease" mean that he has bad asthma which we can only hope he eventually outgrows.

He should be having his surgery for the feeding tube very quickly - the surgery clinic should call us tomorrow and he could have it done this week. It's fast, but at least it will be done quickly and he can start to really gain weight. We'll update when we have it scheduled.
