a smooth night

Athan slept really well last night. He is very mellow, and doesn't seem to be in much pain. His only complaint is that I have to stop his feedings short because we're still watching his fluid intake (that makes him pretty mad!). I think that will stop soon, though, and we should be free to feed as much as he wants. He is eating his baby food really well, and has been very happy to eat/play with his puffs again.

He has already had labs drawn this morning, which showed his potassium is low (common side effect of one of his medications). They also repeated the chest x-ray again, and we should hear about those results on rounds this morning. I think they will also give the official order to stop his IV steroids and return to taking it like he does/will at home.

Ryan and I both managed to rest fairly well when Athan was asleep, even though we had to curl up on each end of the one cot in the room. :-)

Thanks to our wonderful Wilmore Family who visited us last night, brought us dinner, and loved on our boy. It was sososo good to see them and celebrate Athan's progress together.
