Sweet Lito took his first bath since spring break last night and then requested that we all wear our Lito shirts to bed 🥹🥹🥹

Also, I love hiding from him 🤣

Everyone’s favorite Lito has a message for all the mamas out there!

It’s not always easy, and it’s not always beautiful, but it’s always worth it.

Happy Mother’s Day, loves. Thank you for continuing to support us.

I just realized I never updated from the ENT.

They think Lito’s breathing issue is being caused by his vocal cords not opening enough to let air through. That’s why we can hear it.

They want him to do speech therapy and get rechecked in about six weeks.

It’s so weird because when he first was extubated, he couldn’t make sound, he could only whisper because his vocal cords weren’t touching when he tried to speak.
It’s also weird to me that this happened so long after he got the ventilator removed.

I’m not a doctor, and tbh, everything with Lito is super weird right now, so what’s another drop in the bucket?

Thank you for continuing to support our boy and our family. 💙💙

At Lito’s appointment yesterday he noticed Ezra had an eye bo**er.

He got it out for him. 🥹

Also, the doctor brought them stickers. He got Lito a Spider-Man sticker and got Ezra a Disney princess sticker. Lito said “I think my brother would rather have a Spider-Man sticker, like me.” 🥹

Then, after all that, we got home and he pushed Ezra for using the tablet he wanted lmao 🤣

When Lito first got really sick, Emma was crying and said “mama, who’s gonna take care of Ezzy if something happens to Lito?”

This kid is a great brother (as long as Ezra does exactly what he says 😉), fiercely protects Ezra, and uses every opportunity to teach Ezra all the things.

Our boys.

Lito update:

He’s home, still wheezy and short of breath.

Listen to our boy read 😍😍😍

He’s doing so well on his little work 😍

Also, Ms. Neighbors, do you have to scratch his back while he does his work? 😮‍💨

This is a snippet of Lito sleeping.

His wheeze sound is so much worse at night.

He’s always been a snorer - we joke that he sounds like his grandpa when he sleeps.

😭😭😭😭Lito in his brother’s cap. 💙

Friends:

After a visit to the local emergency room, under the guidance of our oncologist team at OU, Lito was transported back to OU Children’s tonight.

Our boy had started wheezing, worse as he laid down, and his breathing is labored.

After spending 5+ hours in the ER, OU ER offered to send a chopper, and Lito was transported by ambulance.

When we know more, we will update.

Our boy is sad. His parents are sad. Our family is sad. 😔
