Riding the Vent

Crew is still on the ventilator. We all expected him to come off more than 24 hours ago, but he refuses to breathe on his own even now. In fact, he was breathing better yesterday than he is today. His eyes remain at a higher risk for ROP while he is on the ventilator. Breathe, boy, breathe! He hasn't had any sedation since yesterday, but he's still sleeeeeeeeping very deeply.
