Despite the fact that we got absolutely no sleep last night, Joshua had a pretty decent day. We basically had to force him to the playroom this afternoon, but I'm really glad we did because he had two hours of fun!He was then visited by a friend, and later a few family members. Let me just say, Joshua has been so spoiled! Every time he's visited he's given more gifts! We seriously have a mountain of gifts. And he's also received 2 packages in the mail full of toys. The nurses think it's funny that he's got SO many toys & they just keep coming!
Between the playroom & the visitors, Joshua stayed distracted & in some-what good spirits.
He was taken off the heparin IV today, so we no longer have to lug that big pump around! He's on .5 liter of O2, which he'll hopefully be weened of on Monday. And other than that they are working on switching meds from IV to oral so that we can get out of this place!!
No word of when we'll be home free, but hopefully by Monday we'll have a pretty good idea of when we can make a break for it. If everything continues to go smoothly, we should be home by next weekend. Yay!
(The top picture is of him playing a little basketball in the playroom & the second picture is of the giant marble maze he & Jon constructed. Joshua was so impressed by it.:)
