prayers, prayers, prayers.....

It looks like lane will be turning four months old at riley hospital. We headed back to the hospital because of the stridor we have been fighting for over a month. He stayed a day in a pediatrics pulmonary unit, but last night he was moved to intensive care. About ten last night they decided it would be best to sedate him and put him on a ventilator, so now my baby that ripped out his vent at 6hrs old and 4lbs is now on the one thing we fought to keep him off of. As much as I hate to see him look like this, so lifeless and helpless, I feel I must admit he is more comfortable. Lane's heartrate is finally down to normal and his stridor is gone, making it very easy for him to breath.....although the machine is breathing for him right now. I hate this whole thing, we have been to 3 different hospitals and they are just now seeing its not croup. He has an IV in his skull right now, but they are going to put a pic line in today. He also goes for an mri at two to see how his brain is laying to rule out the possibility of pressure on his vocal nerve. I really don't know anything more at the moment. All I can ask is for prayers.....tons and tons of prayers. Please help with this small gesture. I love you all.....Danielle
