On the left of the picture is my ventilator this has all sorts of wiggly graphs and technical stuff on it which daddy seems to find more interesting than me sometimes! The ventilator regulates my breathing for me, without this very special piece of equipment i would be in real trouble.... i cant wait until i don't need it any more though.
On the right up high is my LCD TV ! but i cant get it tuned into anything than more wobbly lines and it makes lots of beeping noises. The wobbly lines show my heart rate (should be around 150-170 bpm) and my oxygen levels, nurses call this my 'sats'.
What you cant see in this picture is all my medicine machines.... they are permanently connected to me by little IV lines and slowly keep me topped up with all the antibiotics, pain killers and fluids i need. These lines are not very nice, i don't like them, they feel uncomfortable.
Finally the most essential piece of equipment that does the most to keep me calm and comfortable is my mummy, you can see her hiding behind my incubator keeping her hands on me so that i know she is there.
