"7 am this morning and he slept through the night. .... good pain control. .... Waiting to see how he is feeling...."
He slept pretty late ... I think it was almost 9 before he got up ...
"Someone is waking up First thing he did was look for Daddy.... he loves his Daddy...."
"Look at this smile this morning! He says his tummy still hurts a lot.... we shall see how today goes. ...."
"Trying to eat take two. ..... so far it's just the peaches .... and he asked for more. ... the eggs he isn't so fond of. ...."
"4 little cups of peaches......... that's what he's eaten! YAY!"
After breakfast he was just blah ... so I wanted to get him unhooked from all his wires and chains tubes ... so we talked to the nurse, got it all cleared.... and he got his IV unhooked to try to encourage him to drink more, and got in his own clothes...
"Got little man out for a walk right away this morning.... he didn't want to go but he had a good time riding in the wagon"
After Daddy and I ate, he decided that riding in the wagon was the thing to do ...
Then the trips to the playroom began ...
"Another gift from the hospital. ...." This was one of the "freebies" that patients could take from the playroom that volunteers make. Nate saw it and .... well.... love...
"OMGosh someone sent Nathan this little sloth. ...it is so cute and soft! There was no name on the card so whomever sent it, thank you! He got really excited when he saw it! It also had front row seat to his lunch! Lol"
"THIS JUST IN .................... NATHAN FARTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There was a rumble in his bed.... I heard it .... I hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhheard it... now, back to your regularly scheduled facebook feed...."
"Nathan and his fans are hanging out watching The Muppets for the first time. ..... he is actually watching it too"
"Some of Nate's favorite things for lunch! Cheese sticks bread, apples, carrots and celery. ... seriously, four winners in his book!"
There are several dogs that come around to visit the kids.... and this is Mika :)
Back down to the playroom for awhile, this time Nate wanted to play outside for a little bit...
Out for another walk, I took pictures of some of the tiny glass pieces (I think it's a type of shrink-a-dink type thing) .. some of our favorites... and the bottom are some of our pipe cleaner animals we did in the playroom earlier ...
It's pure SILLINESS here....
"Nathan was told that to go home he had to drink, I turned around and saw this. .... ha ha ha.... he did it for awhile but didn't actually drink much...."
"His nurse was just in here about 45 minutes or so ago, doing his vitals and he was doing really good - just when I think there is HOPE going home tonight - maybe - it gets crushed. She was doing his vitals and he pointed to a zero on the pain scale, and then just about 10 - 15 minutes ago - everything changed. He had a bad face, even burst into tears Went from a zero on the pain scale to about a 6. So we are doing some ibuprofen and hoping that helps. I am hoping he'll take a nap but fat chance of that...."
"We are for sure staying tonight ..... Nathan just got a suppository too ... so we should expect an explosion at some point ..."
Dinner came ... but ... he didn't eat much :( He did have FUN eating though... and he cracked up his nurses....
"Asking your child permission to watch TV .... cuz, it's his hospital room and he's had an endless supply of DVDs of Blues Clues going..... right now, it's Monsters University .... but I literally just said to him "Hey Nate, can we watch Hell's Kitchen tonight" ... he went "um-hum" ... I think that was a yes. I think DB secretly enjoys Blues Clues ...dontcha Daddy?"
"Nathan got real upset tonight. ..."
"So Nathan just had a good cry, he wants to go home, so we called up is brothers and talked to them for a few minutes.... and now he's sleeping. No poop yet though ......... humph."
"Sleeping at 7pm....."
"So Nathan's output has gone down a little and he has drank maybe 6 oz of liquid all day. He's been eating well but just not drinking - even though he's been off the IV all day. Took him until afternoon to really get all the IV fluids out of him and since then, diapers haven't been that good. So .... they are hooking him back up to the IV tonight. I can't disagree with that, I don't want him getting dehydrated. He's eating - now just need him to drink and poop"
"More on Nathan.......
They had to come in and mess with his IV line……… he weren’t happy like…. no no …. but he is sleeping again …. as long as he be sleeping, I be happy like….
And when I talk like that, I really need sleep….."
"Over two hours later ………. IV is finally in an more pain meds on board … he should be undisturbed for about 4 hours…"
And I finally went to sleep for a few hours.....
