Friday morning

Athan had a good night last night. His sugars were consistently up, and he slept and ate well. We were told that they have eliminated the possibility of any additional metabolic disorders, and neurology decreased the dose of his phenobarb. He just had a little more blood drawn to check his electrolytes and potassium level again, and we were so relieved that it was easy to get the blood this time. It looks like we are still on track to go home either this evening or tomorrow morning, pending his next dose of growth hormone (shot) and how he handles it.

Ryan stayed here with me last night. I'm sure many of you know that hospital cots don't hold two adults very comfortably! :) Still, it was good to get a "trial run" of a night at home (sort of - there are still hospital protocols we have to follow that we won't at home - like taking his vitals every 3 hours, etc.).
