Early Morning Scare

About 4:30 am the doctors realized by looking at Xavier's recent chest x-ray that his breathing tube was not as far down as it should have been.  The nurse called in another nurse to help her take the tape off of the tube and push it back in.  Seeing as nothing is just as simple as it sounds for Xavier we had an emergency on our hands.  The tube was too far to the side in his mouth and they were unable to get a grip on it and somehow his stats were dropping and dropping fast.  A team of about 10 doctors and nurses came rushing in with all this medical equipment, they bagged him until they felt safe trying it again.  They were unsure of the possibility of them being able to fix the tube so they called in someone to reintabate him. The team worked quickly and efficiently and were able to fix the tube that was already in and not have to extabate in order to reintabate another tube.  The more that they extabate and intabate the more damage it causes to his vocal cords.  Xavier is extremely horse and barely has a voice to begin with.  The doctors said that it will probably take months for his voice to get back to normal. They are getting another x-ray to make sure the tube is positioned correctly.  Please pray for no more complications and surprises today!
