Friday, 1/11/2008

By popular demand, I'm taking time out of my busy schedule (yeah, right) to update the blog this morning. As in the past, I have little to mention when things are slowly improving. There have been no setbacks. They've given him some drugs to slow his system so as to allow time for the intestines to start absorbing. He is getting formula via the G-tube at a current rate of 4ml/hour. They have increased it 1ml/hour every 3 days, but I think that's about to change. The surgeon said last week that he would probably be going home in 2 weeks, but it seems they use a sliding window since the story hadn't changed yesterday.

Anyways, he's doing well. His spirits are fine and Christa is keeping him very active during the days. He enjoys going over to the play room and spending hours on the computer (like father, like son). Don't worry though, he's getting plenty of exercise walking the halls. They even went outside earlier this week and enjoyed the unseasonably warm weather. All in all, things are moving int he right direction.
