Notice Anything Different?

"Hey world, notice anything different about me?"

"What is it, Jude? Did you get contact lenses?"

"No."

"Did you shave your mustache?"

"No.

"Did you get a haircut?"

"No.

"What is it? Tell us!"

"No more oxygen!"

"Woot woot!"

That's right, folks. Jude went to the pulmonologist this afternoon with his sister Hazel, and the doctor determined that he doesn't have to wear his oxygen anymore! He'll still wear it at night and during naps, but during waking hours Jude is now cordless. Thank you all for your prayers. God has granted our petitions.

The next step is for us to run a home sleep study with a pulse-0x to determine if Jude and/or Hazel still needs to wear the oxygen during sleep. But just getting rid of the oxygen during the day is a huge step for Jude and a big relief for us all.

Cheers!

Beautiful! It's great to see that sweet little face, unobstructed. And, what a gift for Mom and Dad to have one less thing to deal with during the day. Great news!

Yay!!! Your mother's intuition and growing expertise continues to be confirmed by the official 'Dr.'s decision. Congrats Jude - on going 'cordless' AND having such knowledgeable, wise parents and pretty cute sister.
