Cycling begins..

Visiting Reyes in the hospital nowadays is so cumblesome due to the swine flu, we had to have our temperature taken after we park our car at the B2 carpark, then after the lift to level 1, we have to sign in and get a pass, followed by signing in again at NICU and only one parent allowed to visit at a time.

Reyes weighs 1683g as of today. He is put on air cycling starting today, meaning an hour of air cap followed by 3 hours of CPAP and we were told he tolerated the cycling pretty well. Tomorrow it would be likely to be 2 hours of air cap followed by 2 hours CPAP. Air cap is just a plastic cover that covers half the cot, with oxygen supply. Very soon, he would be wean off CPAP and then it will be an hour of room air, followed by 3 hours of air cap.

Once he is on room air and when his weight reaches 1.8kg, he would be transferred to Special Care and very soon, once he hit 2 kg, he can be home! I can't wait for that to happen.

I know he can do it, he would be off CPAP in no time. God has always been watching over him and this time God would be with him as well. Reyes, mummy knows you can do it!
