Levi continues to amaze us with his grit and determination.
On Friday, he had his 3rd surgery which was to remove the breathing tube from his mouth and insert a tracheostomy.
This has opened a whole new world for him. He was able to swish his favourite Green Apple Gatorade around in his mouth and even took a bite of a popsicle. He is practicing hard for his goal of eating a “whole cucumber”, which he has been talking about for days. One of the nurses brought one in and we are so ready for this day!!
Today’s milestone is he was able to come off the ventilator and breathe on his own for a couple hours. He has been told by several doctors that it is like training for a marathon. He is committed to the task in front of him and showing us just how strong he is.
Thank you for your continued love and support! Your kind words and offers to help are getting us through these darkest of days.
Please continue to share his story along with the many amazing fundraising efforts that are being done. 💙 The Sutherlands.
