Porter is having a bit of a rough day. I knew something wasn’t right with him this morning when I came in.  He’s been tachypnic (breathing fast) since yesterday but today his breathing was more labored. He has had 3 IVs in the last few days to recieve his antibiotics but all the IVs have gone bad so they took him today to place a central line.  He did well with the procedure and hopefully the labs they ran will give us an idea about why he’s breathing so fast.  They said his lungs are clear. 

The great news is, I just found out today that Porter was re-activated at status 1A on the transplant list on Monday.  Woohoo!!
