Raphael is finally home. We have been issued with three machines that go ping, an oxygen cylinder, sticky things, slippery things and enough plastic tubing to pump gas into and out of every house in our street. We are still waiting on the suction machine to be delivered though.
The night before last we tried a prototype headpiece but this did not work very well as it kept on slipping down. Last nights CPAP was very good, we finally had a customised five strap headpiece that fitted well and did not slip off at night when he moved around. At one point he even got up and crawled around the cot. He knocked off some of his sensors (sticky things) but the mask stayed on and maintained a good seal the whole time.
Over the last two nights they also measured his CO2 levels. The first nights results were ambiguous but the second nights results encouragingly showed no CO2 build up.
