daughter in law had the procedure yesterday to take the baby. The clinic gave her a ribbon and tiny ring to remember the baby by. They also offer a burial of all the lost babies, which will take place in a few months. Nice symbolic gestures, and a feeling of closure, which we all found comforting.
daughter in law ate a good supper and slept for a few hours, then woke up and we spent a few hours together in the evening. She's got a dern good head on her shoulders, and we had good talks. She slept well all night.
Woke up this morning with some pain, but Tylenol is keeping it down well. She says its not too bad as long as she doesn't move around too much.
Baby J is trying to kick his morphine habit, and it's kicking his butt instead! Poor lil dude gets the shivers and is just so uncomfortable in his own skin!! Tough times this morning, and so the docs gave him a bump of morphine, and he gained some ground. Able to take medications orally and keep them down. Able to play a bit with Grandma B, and then snuggle-buggle together for a cat nap.
Had a fever and some loud rawls in his chest today, and has had a Chemo Tan as well. Wiskott Aldrich doctor is loving all his other numbers, tho, and so we are not overly concerned as they address the other issues. Fever is down by this afternoon. Chest xray taken, nebulizer treatment given, and we proceed with the Cure!
Tomorrow & Thursday difficult child & daughter in law will attend classes to get trained on how to care for his central line upon discharge from UMH. Which should be in about 2 weeks!!! YeahYeahYeah!!
That's what I know for sure so far today.
Peace
