Thanks for the update, Cindy. We are all thinking of and praying for you and Steve.
I know you do
Doing it tomorrow morning will give him a little more time to get even stronger. (((((Classy)))))
Classy, that is more normal procedure if he didn't do well the first attempt - to wait 24 hours, give his body and lungs time to further strengthen...hang in there. I know you want him off - it is better to wean him there slow and steady so he'll be at his best in the am for a succesful attempt. It is hard, I know, to sit, to watch, to wait and seemingly nothing happens...but it will; he will regroup and tomorrow will go better.
Thinking of you and Steve ... know that I am. ((((hugs))))

What the others already said. I'm sure it must be hard to wait, and frustrating, but they're giving him another 12 hours or so to get stronger. Prayers continuing.
Positive thoughts and prayers for tomorrow, tons of ((((hugs)))) and well wishes.
I hope that Steve gained much strength through the night and that you were able to get some rest Classy.
