Lots of ups and downs the past few days. Sunday was great, Monday mostly sucked and today wasn't so bad. We seem to have gotten most things under control and are now battling not constipation, but gas. Poor buddy has lots and lots and lots of gas. And I know because I saw it on the x-ray today. We are trying to give him some relief from that. The really bad news is that the gas seems to be keeping him from wanting to walk and until he is walking and more himself, we definitely can't go home. I was really hoping maybe Friday we could leave, but that is looking unlikely now. Maybe by Tuesday...
First time sitting him up:
Trying to get him to stand for first time:
Much better at sitting up now:
Trying to adjust to limited mobility with his cast:
His poor fingers from his blood sugar pricks and his swollen elbow from the infiltrated IV:
He is adjusting though and doing much better with the cast. The doctors had to "crack him like a peanut" as they put it and that has made the cast much more comfortable for him.
