Today's Events

Well since I posted this morning I thought I'd end the day with a post and try to post in the evenings from now on.

This afternoon was a little more eventfully then this morning. It started around noon when the bolt that is screwed in his head (the ICP monitor) came loose and was just sort of hanging there. Good news is that the catheder didn't come out of the ventricle but the NS had to come in and literally screw the bolt back in his head. That was something I'd rather not see again. They gave him some meds that knocked him out so he didn't feel or remember anything and he had a good nap after that.

He was a little irritable when he woke up but cheered up when daddy came in. We played catch and hit balloons and watched more Dora, imagine that. Then our neighbors came up for a quick visit and brought with them a Dora balloon. Jackson was thrilled and screamed DORA when they came in. From then on he perked up and really enjoyed playing with Suzanne and Christopher. When they left he continued his good mood and even ate a little mac'n'cheese. Now we are watching Tom and Jerry and getting ready for bed. Hopefully it'll be a good night.
