the life ship!




hard to believe logan lives in there
with all those wires and hoses

Logan's isolette looks a little bit like a space ship, especially since he had the super duper ventilator attached. Every once in a while it is necessary to "pop the top" so that the respiratory technician can take care of him and his machinery. When the top goes up, I can't help but think of star trek or something like that. I call the isolette his "Lifeship" and he lives quite comfortably in there.

going up!


Today the RT decided that Logan needed to be cleaned up. So she popped the top and started to change up his mask and tubes AND she really wanted to wash his face. We started at 3pm and he was finally all tidied up and tucked in just after 4pm. Who knew it could take an hour to wash and change the little peanut?

this is how logan gets his face washed
two RT's, and an audience

Of course he peed all over the place (requiring a second diaper change) and squirmed a bit but by and large he turned out ok after his little clean up. He really didn't have much choice as he was wrapped up tightly and held down for the whole operation.

looking good after
"operation clean up"!

Once he was completely cleaned and changed it was time to replace his lid.





Of course, as soon as he was settled and comfortable he didn't want to cooperate any more; camera shy again!

classic logan with his hands over his face
