JM has made amazing strides forward in the last 24 hours. He is such a little trooper. He made it out of the PICU yesterday morning about 11 am and has been improving since. He off oxygen and his sats have been good all night. He started eating about 2PM yesterday and is doing well with that. We started out slowly as we didn't want him to get nauseous and decide he didn't like to eat. He took a full bottle last night about 8PM and has slept well overnight. They have had to wake him up for pain meds a couple of times but otherwise his night has gone smoothly.
He played in his crib a bit from 3-4AM...but then went back to sleep till now when they had to awaken him again.
The hope is that we will make the trip over the river sometime today. I know 3 kids that will be glad to have "baby brother" home. They don't know all that he has been through, but just know he didn't come home when they expected him.
EM had a follow up appoinment with his surgeon yesterday and all is going well with him. He can now eat whatever he wants...boy did that make him happy!!
I will try and post once we are home.
My parents are still here and have been such great help. Knowing that they kids are being so well taken care or makes me not have to worry about that!
Thanks for all the support. We love you all.
